Public bug reported:
At present the CLI framework grabs $argv wholesale and works through it
testing whole words.
Typically, the short form of an option has always allowed a slightly different
form. Whilst the long option might be
--foo=bar
The short option should support:
-f bar
Additionally, both options should support the use of quotes:
--title="Hello World"
- "Hello World"
We therefore need to implode the $argv array, and write a suitable
regexp to handle this in a while loop instead
