PiperOrigin-RevId: 246828655 -- e1bc8c2aa3f90b3d56c55c5b7244e718c919265d by Abseil Team <absl-team@google.com>: Internal change PiperOrigin-RevId: 246822325 -- 907a68f287199f749cb9bdb48571b50bc34731e1 by Eric Fiselier <ericwf@google.com>: Accept vector<bool>::reference in StrCat and friends. Converting vector<bool>::reference to alphanum requires two user defined conversions, which isn't allowed. In order to accept this, we need a special constructor that is only enabled for the bool proxy types.

+// Parses the set of command-line arguments passed in the `argc` (argument
+// count) and `argv[]` (argument vector) parameters from `main()`, assigning
+// values to any defined Abseil flags. (Any arguments passed after the
+// flag-terminating delimiter (`--`) are treated as positional arguments and
+// ignored.)
+//
+// Any command-line flags (and arguments to those flags) are parsed into Abseil
+// Flag values, if those flags are defined. Any undefined flags will either
+// return an error, or be ignored if that flag is designated using `undefok` to
+// indicate "undefined is OK."
+//
+// Any command-line positional arguments not part of any command-line flag (or
+// arguments to a flag) are returned in a vector, with the program invocation
+// name at position 0 of that vector. (Note that this includes positional
+// arguments after the flag-terminating delimiter `--`.)
+//
+// After all flags and flag arguments are parsed, this function looks for any
+// built-in usage flags (e.g. `--help`), and if any were specified, it reports
+// help messages and then exits the program.
