I just noticed that there is a (pre-existing) `file=<dumpfile>` argument that
can be used with `-heap:format=` to specify the dumpfile name. Otherwise it
dumps to `heap.bin`. It's not currently documented. I think it's enough to just
add `[,file=<dumpfile>]` to the argument syntax. No description should be
necessary.

This is missing `format=x` and also needs `file=<dumpfile>`
