Parsing is oblivious of which option names are valid. It's actually
oblivious of the entire QemuOpts definition.
Desugaring may depend on the QemuOpts definition, however.
"a,b,,help" gets parsed as four option parameters:
"a", which gets desugared to either "a=on" or "firstname=a"
"b", which gets desugared to "b=on"
"" , which gets desugared to "=on"
"help", which gets desugared to "help=on"
A user of the parse that supports help should clue on the last one,
throw away the parse, and provide help.
The first desugaring is one that depends on the QemuOpts definition.

No. Will fix, thanks!
