SF bug #729096 : getopt online documentation example improvement
...
A newbie found it difficult to translate the exampe into a
case that used only short options or long options but not both.
He tried to shorten the tuple search but forgot the trailing comma,
The appropriate pattern is an equality check.
Revised the example to point him in the right direction.
Backport candidate.

getopt(): revise description of long_options parameter slightly so it will
...
be less confusing; add a paragraph separation so that comments about
the options and long_options parameters don't have references that
are easily misinterpreted.
Adjust the interactive examples to not need the string module.
Add an example showing how the module is commonly used in a script.
