This fixes an issue where occurrence counts would be unexpectedly
reset when parsing different parts of a command line multiple
times.
**ORIGINAL COMMIT MESSAGE**
This allows command line tools to use syntaxes like the following:
llvm-foo.exe command1 -o1 -o2
llvm-foo.exe command2 -p1 -p2
Where command1 and command2 contain completely different sets of
valid options. This is backwards compatible with previous uses
of llvm cl which did not support subcommands, as any option
which specifies no optional subcommand (e.g. all existing
code) goes into a special "top level" subcommand that expects
dashed options to appear immediately after the program name.
For example, code which is subcommand unaware would generate
a command line such as the following, where no subcommand
is specified:
llvm-foo.exe -q1 -q2
The top level subcommand can co-exist with actual subcommands,
as it is implemented as an actual subcommand which is searched
if no explicit subcommand is specified. So llvm-foo.exe as
specified above could be written so as to support all three
aforementioned command lines simultaneously.
There is one additional "special" subcommand called AllSubCommands,
which can be used to inject an option into every subcommand.
This is useful to support things like help, so that commands
such as:
llvm-foo.exe --help
llvm-foo.exe command1 --help
llvm-foo.exe command2 --help
All work and display the help for the selected subcommand
without having to explicitly go and write code to handle each
one separately.
This patch is submitted without an example of anything actually
using subcommands, but a followup patch will convert the
llvm-pdbdump tool to use subcommands.
