    CLI-217: Optional partial matching

    At request of Gary, I (re)created an old patch against the current code 
base to enable partial matching to be set as optional. This fixes problems for 
people that have short options that, concatenated, also partial-match a long 
option.
    
    For example:
        -d, --debug
        -e, --extract
    
        foo -de
    
    Is ambiguous in the case that partial matching is enabled. This patch 
allows a user to turn off partial matching in such a case.
