I have no standing to approve or disapprove, but I like this patch, as at the 
moment I have to specify -X because I can't specify multiple -K options on the 
command line.

However, I think it needs a clearer description: What it actually does is
(i) add infrastructure for handling options which are repeated, and (ii) 
correctly handle multiple --site, --pubkey and -sexpr-pubkey options.

Would it make sense for the new StringArrayOption class derive from or have 
members of type StringOption, rather than duplicating some of it?
