parse-options: show negatability of options in short help
Add a "[no-]" prefix to options without the flag PARSE_OPT_NONEG to
document the fact that you can negate them.
This looks a bit strange for options that already start with "no-", e.g.
for the option --no-name of git show-branch:
--[no-]no-name suppress naming strings
You can actually use --no-no-name as an alias of --name, so the short
help is not wrong. If we strip off any of the "no-"s, we lose either
the ability to see if the remaining one belongs to the documented
variant or to see if it can be negated.
