Subject: runtests: restore `-k` option and actively process as no-op
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=481e10160f4810dc7731922b3a98461deb1dcbed;p=thirdparty%2Fcurl.git

runtests: restore `-k` option and actively process as no-op

Restore processing this option to avoid falling it through and
misinterpreted as something else, which in turn disables tests.

Exit with an error instead. We delete completely in December 2026.
