We could check if argh comes with its own angle brackets already and
not add a second pair in that case, making PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP
redundant in most cases, including the one above.  Any downsides?
Too magical?

Subject: [PATCH] parse-options: automatically infer PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP

Avoid adding an extra pair of angular brackets if the argh string
already contains one.  Remove the flag PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP in the
cases where the new automatic handling suffices.  This shortens and
simplifies option definitions with special argument help strings a bit.
