  Fix usage of :option: in the docs (#9312).

  :option: is used to create a link to an option of python, not to mark
  up any instance of any arbitrary command-line option.  These were
  changed to ````.

  For modules which do have a command-line interface, lists of options
  have been properly marked up with the program/cmdoption directives
  combo.  Options defined in such blocks can be linked to with :option:
  later in the same file, they won’t link to an option of python.

  Finally, the markup of command-line fragments in optparse.rst has
  been cleaned to use ``x`` instead of ``"x"``, keeping that latter
  form for actual Python strings.

  Patch by Eli Bendersky and Éric Araujo.
