Review comment:
I understand what it does, and I agree with adding the flag. My point
was that people will find this option in `mvn help` and might not know what it
entails. For example, `ls` has this as help text:
> --color[=WHEN] colorize the output; WHEN can be 'always' (default if
omitted), 'auto', or 'never'; more info below
So perhaps we can change the description to something like:
```suggestion
options.addOption( Option.builder().longOpt( COLOR ).hasArg().desc(
"Defines the color mode of the output. Available options are auto/always/never"
).build() );
```
