Re: [PATCH 3/5] interpret-trailers: add an option to show only existing trailers

It can be useful to invoke interpret-trailers for the
primary purpose of parsing existing trailers. But in that
case, we don't want to apply existing ifMissing or ifExists
rules from the config. Let's add a special mode where we
avoid applying those rules. Coupled with --only-trailers,
this gives us a reasonable parsing tool.

I have the impression that the name is slightly misleading
because 'only' just reduces the set. it does not enhance it.
(Do we have a configuration that says "remove this trailer
anytime"?)

So maybe this is rather worded as 'exact-trailers' ?
