#  COMPONENT: getopts - simple argument parser
#
#  This utility makes it easy to process arguments for various
#  commands.  You give a description of arguments, and it will
#  parse and return the values.
#
#    getopts args params {
#        value -foo foo_default
#        flag group -bar default
#        flag group -baz
#    }
#
#  Note that both args and params are passed by name, not by
#  value (not $args or $params).  This function initializes the
#  params variable according to the values in the spec list.
#  It then loops through all args, matching as many as possible
#  from the list.  It throws an error on the first error
#  encountered.  If there are extra arguments that don't match
#  the flags and don't start with -, they are left in args, and
#  processing stops.
