Also commit 5e65da07fa3b80413465def0a30a5961d98234a8 which

Thanks for Rich's help:)

Verified with packages:
libguestfs-1.32.7-1.el7.x86_64

Verify steps:
1. --long-options is used by the bash completion scripts(Bug 1367738), check if it can list all the options:
# virt-diff --long-options
--add
--all
--atime
--checksum
--checksums
--csv
--connect
--dir-link
--dir-links
--dir-nlink
--dir-nlinks
--dir-time
--dir-times
--domain
--echo-keys
--extra-stat
--extra-stats
--format
--help
--human-readable
--keys-from-stdin
--time
--times
--time-days
--time-relative
--time-t
--uid
--uids
--verbose
--version
--xattr
--xattrs

2. Check the --help output of the following commands according to https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/commit/5e65da07fa3b80413465def0a30a5961d98234a8:
# virt-alignment-scan --help
# virt-df --help
# virt-edit --help
# guestfish --help
# virt-make-fs --help
# virt-p2v --help
