bpo-34062: Add missing launcher argument and make behavior consistent between short and long arguments (GH-8827)

Added previously missing "--list" argument.
Made "--list" and "--list-paths" behavior consistent with the corresponding "-0" and "-0p" arguments.
(cherry picked from commit aada63b20ec64bbfc4f2fb0718fc563eedbdd36a)
