I think, std::arguments name is too generic and may encroach on something
associated with function arguments in the future. And the name is confusing
today for the same reason.

A few better alternatives are: program_arguments, command_line,
program_options.

Past experience: there exists Boost.ProgramOptions, which is a well known
library for working with command line. While the library design and goals
are very different from the proposal, it sets existing nomenclature for the
problem domain.
