QCommandLineParser: support extremely concise option configuration in C++11
The goal of this commit to make the code in the test work: QCommandLineParser parser; parser.addOptions({ { "a", "The A option." }, { { "v", "verbose" }, "The verbose option." }, { { "i", "infile" }, "The input file.", "value" }, }); For this, QCommandLineParser needs a version of addOption that can take a list of options. That's what addOptions() is for. More importantly, the QCommandLineOption ctors mustn't be explicit. OTOH, any implicit conversion from QString or QStringList to QCommandLineOption is also undesirable. To solve this dilemma, add new QCommandLineOption ctors that just take one argument and are explicit, and make the existing ctors implicit. In order to avoid ambiguities, remove the default values of their resp. 2nd arguments. The new ctors are by intention not \since 5.4, as they are completely transparent to the user. Et voila, even better than getopt_long(3). [ChangeLog][QtCore][QCommandLineParser] Added addOptions() method.
