Among options[] elements, "batch" and "batch-check" take &batch, and
they are obviously mutually exclusive. "batch-all-objects" can flip
the batch.all_objects flag to affect operations that use &batch
(namely, these two), so it is more like a modifier and can never be
a cmdmode.
Is "git cat-file -t tag --batch" a valid way to invoke the command?
Are there options (like "-t" in the above example) that are marked
with OPT_CMDMODE that can be used with "--batch" or "--batch-check"?
If the answer is "no", then "--batch" and "--batch-check" could also
be command modes, but I suspect OPT_CMDMODE() does not have enough
flexibility to say "use the &opt to record which command mode is
requested, and by the way, there is this extra pointer &batch to
stuff necessary information in and use this callback to fill it", so
even if "--batch" and "--batch-check" are incompatible with existing
command modes, it needs a bit or preparatory work to make them.
