vo, ao: disable positional parameter suboptions
Positional parameters cause problems because they can be ambiguous with flag options. If a flag option is removed or turned into a non-flag option, it'll usually be interpreted as value for the first sub-option (as positional parameter), resulting in very confusing error messages. This changes it into a simple "option not found" error. I don't expect that anyone really used positional parameters with --vo or --ao. Although the docs for --ao=pulse seem to encourage positional parameters for the host/sink options, which means it could possibly annoy some PulseAudio users. --vf and --af are still mostly used with positional parameters, so this must be a configurable option in the option parser.
