Arguments after "end of flags" (--) aren't easily available

See original GitHub issue

Feature request

Add a __ property that only contains the arguments following the end of flags token.

Why?

Arguments passed after the “end of flags” token (--) are appended to _, but there is no way to determine at which point in the array they start. It’s often the case that extra args need to be passed to a child process, which requires them to be separated from the “known” args.

With cleye’s current design, it’s not possible to determine where the extra args begin.

Alternatives

Expose a property containing the index of the first extra arg.
