> Please review a small enhancement when reporting bad options on the command line.
> 
> [JDK-8313693](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8313693) introduced code to help determine a list of suggestions when given a misspelled word and a vocabulary of possibly intended words.  It was added in the context of reporting bad/invalid tags in doc comments.
> 
> This fix leverages that code by applying it to unrecognized command-line options, comparing them against the set of supported command-line options. Now, when an unknown command-line option is found, the code will report possible suggestions, and a reference to `--help` instead of just simply listing the full command-line help.

Jonathan Gibbons has updated the pull request incrementally with one additional commit since the last revision:

  slight simplication for handling suggestions
