boolean/auto-boolean commands, make "o" ambiguous

We currently accept "o" with boolean/auto-boolean commands, taking it
to mean "on".  But "o" is ambiguous, between "on" and "off".  I can't
imagine why assuming the user wanted to type "on" is a good idea, it
might have been a typo.

This commit makes gdb error out.  We now get:

 (gdb) maint test-settings set boolean o
 "on" or "off" expected.

 (gdb) maint test-settings set auto-boolean o
 "on", "off" or "auto" expected.
