cmdline_find_option_bool() keeps track of position in two strings:
1. the command-line
2. the option we are searchign for in the command-line
We plow through each character in the command-line one at a time, always
moving forward. We move forward in the option ('opptr') when we match
characters in 'cmdline'. We reset the 'opptr' only when we go in to the
'st_wordstart' state.
But, if we fail to match an option because we see a space
(state=st_wordcmp, *opptr='\0',c=' '), we set state='st_wordskip' and
'break', moving to the next character. But, that move to the next
character is the one *after* the ' '. This means that we will miss a
'st_wordstart' state.
For instance, if we have
cmdline = "foo fool";
and are searching for "fool", we have:
"fool"
opptr = ----^
"foo fool"
c = --------^
We see that 'l' != ' ', set state=st_wordskip, break, and then move 'c', so:
"foo fool"
c = ---------^
and are still in state=st_wordskip. We will stay in wordskip until we
have skipped "fool", thus missing the option we were looking for. This
*only* happens when you have a partially- matching word followed by a
matching one.
To fix this, we always fall *into* the 'st_wordskip' state when we set
it.
