/// Type-less base option class.
///
/// This abstract class provides the most generic representation of options.  It
/// allows defining options with both short and long names, with and without
/// arguments and with and without optional values.  These are all the possible
/// combinations supported by the getopt_long(3) function, on which this is
/// built.
///
/// The internal values (e.g. the default value) of a generic option are all
/// represented as strings.  However, from the caller's perspective, this is
/// suboptimal.  Hence why this class must be specialized: the subclasses
/// provide type-specific accessors and provide automatic validation of the
/// types (e.g. a string '3foo' is not passed to an integer option).
///
/// Given that subclasses are used through templatized code, they must provide:
///
/// <ul>
///     <li>A public option_type typedef that defines the type of the
///     option.</li>
///
///     <li>A convert() method that takes a string and converts it to
///     option_type.  The string can be assumed to be convertible to the
///     destination type.  Should not raise exceptions.</li>
///
///     <li>A validate() method that matches the implementation of convert().
///     This method can throw option_argument_value_error if the string cannot
///     be converted appropriately.  If validate() does not throw, then
///     convert() must execute successfully.</li>
/// </ul>
///
/// TODO(jmmv): Many methods in this class are split into two parts: has_foo()
/// and foo(), the former to query if the foo is available and the latter to get
/// the foo.  It'd be very nice if we'd use something similar Boost.Optional to
/// simplify this interface altogether.
