- traditionally it's been allowed to pass arguments to programs using short form
  as long as there are no other argument which starts with the same letters.
 - this featuresd is being removed in the future and thus, the syntax used in our test suite is adapted.

Fixes:
* --core -> --core-file
* --promote-attribute -> --promote-attributes
* SendBuffer -> SendBufferMemory
* mysql -> mysqld
* --p -> -p (uses the short form option instead of long form --parsable)
