OPT_SET_PTR was never used since its creation at db7244bd
(parse-options new features., 2007-11-07).

Do not force users of OPT_SET_PTR to cast pointer to correct
underlying pointer type by integrating cast into OPT_SET_PTR macro.

Cast is required to prevent 'initialization makes integer from pointer
without a cast' compiler warning.

On 64-bit MSVC, pointers are 64 bit but `long` is only 32.
Thus, casting string to `unsigned long`, which is redundand on other
platforms, throws away important bits and when later cast to `intptr_t`
results in corrupt pointer.

This patch fixes test-parse-options by replacing harming cast with
correct one.

Sparse issues 68 errors (two errors for each main() function) such
as the following:

      SP git.c
  git.c:510:5: error: too many arguments for function mingw_main
  git.c:510:5: error: symbol 'mingw_main' redeclared with different type \
    (originally declared at git.c:510) - different argument counts

The errors are caused by the 'main' macro used by the MinGW build
to provide a replacement main() function. The original main function
is effectively renamed to 'mingw_main' and is called from the new
main function. The replacement main is used to execute certain actions
common to all git programs on MinGW (e.g. ensure the standard I/O
streams are in binary mode).

In order to suppress the errors, we change the macro to include the
parameters in the declaration of the mingw_main function.

Unfortunately, this change provokes both sparse and gcc to complain
about 9 calls to mingw_main(), such as the following:

      CC git.o
  git.c: In function 'main':
  git.c:510: warning: passing argument 2 of 'mingw_main' from \
    incompatible pointer type
  git.c:510: note: expected 'const char **' but argument is of \
    type 'char **'

In order to suppress these warnings, since both of the main
functions need to be declared with the same prototype, we
change the declaration of the 9 main functions, thus:

    int main(int argc, char **argv)

Introduce OPT_BOOL() to test-parse-options and add some tests for
these "true" boolean options. Rename OPT_BOOLEAN to OPT_COUNTUP and
OPTION_BOOLEAN to OPTION_COUNTUP as well.

Add OPT_NOOP_NOARG, a helper macro to define deprecated options in a
standard way.  The help text is taken from the no-op option -r of
git revert.

The callback could be made to emit a (conditional?) warning later.  And
we could also add OPT_NOOP (requiring an argument) etc. as needed.

This just adds repeated invocations of an option to a list
of strings. Using the "--no-<var>" form will reset the list
to empty.

Allows better help text to be defined than "be quiet".  Also make use
of the macro in a place that already had a different description.  No
object code changes intended.
