Since you need to change every single caller consider just starting out
with parse_options() here instead of rolling your own parsing. You could
use it for --always-delay in any case, but you could also just add a
--log-path and --capability (an OPT_STRING_LIST), so:

	test-tool rot13-filter [--always-delay] --log-path=<path> [--capability <capbility]...

In any case, maybe BUG() in an "else" here with "unknown capability"?

Perhaps check the return value & die_errno() if we fail to fclose()
(happens e.g. if the disk fills up).
