Openresolv uses it, and Arch offers that package.
https://github.com/NetworkConfiguration/openresolv/blob/master/resolvconf.in#L108
has a -p
That's my best guess where this came from. And then, since this is off
buried in 'contrib', "nobody" noticed it for years.
(I don't disagree with removing it, I just like forensics).

I quickly checked resolveconf on Ubuntu {18,20,21}.04 and Debian 9-11.
Neither of them supports the '-p' argument.
I've checked Fedora 34, RHEL-{7,8} too, where I could not find any
obvious alternative to the old version of resolvconf tool. On RHEL-8
and Fedora, systemd-resolved is available and provides a different
resolveconf which targets to replace this old utility. This replacement
neither support '-p'.
This option got added in commit 3adf2f558e157ef508 back in 2010, but
there's too little information why it was needed back then. But given
that neither relevant Linux distributions supports this option today,
it's reasonable to remove it now.
