rev-parse --parseopt: allow [*=?!] in argument hints
A line in the input to "rev-parse --parseopt" describes an option by listing a short and/or long name, optional flags [*=?!], argument hint, and then whitespace and help string. We did not allow any of the [*=?!] characters in the argument hints. The following input pair=key=value equals sign in the hint used to generate a help line like this: --pair=key <value> equals sign in the hint and used to expect "pair=key" as the argument name. That is not very helpful as we generally do not want any of the [*=?!] characters in the argument names. But we do want to use at least the equals sign in the argument hints. Update the parser to make long argument names stop at the first [*=?!] character. Add test case with equals sign in the argument hint and update the test to perform all the operations in test_expect_success matching the t/README requirements and allowing commands like ./t1502-rev-parse-parseopt.sh --run=1-2 to stop at the test case 2 without any further modification of the test state area.
