w_counter - have counter -w usaging, must set int pointer
to bb_getopt_ulflags() after all other requires
w_counter is a pointer to an integer. It has to be passed to
bb_getopt_ulflags() after all other option argument sinks.
For example: accept multiple -v to indicate the level of verbosity and
for each -b optarg, add optarg to my_b. Finally, if b is given, turn off
c and vice versa:
