Nit: "uppsercase" -> "uppercase"

This was at least partly my fault: I didn't know what 'metavar' was
actually supposed to be, so assumed it was the name of the variable
the option set (hence them all being the same).

Looks good. I like all of these except possibly KUNITCONFIG, which I
think should probably be FILE, too.

Excellent: that's much more discoverable (and the validation will no
doubt be useful).

Is it worth making this something like FILE or PATH instead.
PATH_TO_KUNITCONFIG would be verbose, but this is a path being given,
so just KUNITCONFIG is still a bit useless.
