[PATCH] Add leading '-' to zparseopts option parsing errors



This only affects error messages associated with parsing positional
parameters. Error messages from parsing option specs are kept as is
without the leading dash to match how options are defined when calling
zparseopts.

---

This would be the new behaviour:

% set -- -h
% zparseopts -- h:
zparseopts: no default array defined: h:
% zparseopts -a foo -- h h
zparseopts: option defined more than once: h
% zparseopts -- h:=foo
zparseopts: missing argument for option: -h

I'm not sure this reduces ambiguity besides the example that Daniel
mentioned earlier.

% set -- --x
% zparseopts -F -- x:=foo
zparseopts: bad option: --x
