[03/10] env--helper: write to opt->value in parseopt helper

Commit Message

We use OPT_CALLBACK_F() to call the option_parse_type() callback,
passing it the address of "cmdmode" as the value to write to. But the
callback doesn't look at opt->value at all, and instead writes to a
global variable.

This works out because that's the same global variable we happen to pass
in, but it's rather confusing.  Let's use the passed-in value instead.
We'll also make "cmdmode" a local variable of the main function,
ensuring we can't make the same mistake again.
