Add maybeValue combinator.

[alunduil]

This combinator is a convenience for handling default values that may fail. I use this pattern to determine sane defaults from the system if available but if not enforce the value to be required instead of having a default.

I'm not sure if this is the best location nor what the recommended testing strategy is for something like this, but please let me know if there is interest in adding a new combinator such as this and what I can improve to ensure it's successfully merged.

G'day,

Thanks for thinking about optparse.

While this might be useful, I don't feel like it's quite common enough that people will reach for it over just using the constituents. Once inlined it's just

maybe mempty value mx <> showDefault

or even

foldMap value mx <> showDefault
