Bug #14629: Option Parser bug

• Status: Rejected
• Assignee: -
• Target version: -
• ruby -v: ruby 2.5.0p0 (2017-12-25 revision 61468) [x86_64-darwin16]
• Backport: 2.3: UNKNOWN, 2.4: UNKNOWN, 2.5: UNKNOWN

Reproduce process:

Case 1:
$ruby testarg.rb --fail-if-changed
"fail if change arg provided"

Case 2:
$ruby testarg.rb --fail-if-change
"fail if change arg provided"

Case 3:
$ruby testarg.rb --fail-if-chang
"fail if change arg provided"

Expected result:

Only case 1 is valid because only one argument is defined "--fail-if-changed", case 2 and 3 should return error but they parse arguments wrongly,

It is a spec, the long option name completion, so that users do not have to type the whole option name.
