reorganize some command-line options

This deletes -d, -e, -p, -Q.  -Q is now a synonym of -q
actually (it was used in the documentation, so it's better
to keep it for a release or two).  -p is used for Emacs
mode so the long version is enough.

For execution tracing we have this mapping:

   old -d    => -D
   old -D    => -D -D
   old -e    => -E
   old -E    => -E -E

which is also more than enough for these rarely used
options.

Of course, the aim of this is to enable (half
tongue-in-cheek)

   gst -pe 'self asUppercase'

Maybe, in the spirit of 'converting' protocol abuse:

$ gst -pe 'self asUppercase'
NIL ;lisp?

Failure to imagine vast possibilities usually stems from a
lack of
imagination, not a lack of possibility.
