sucks that you have to duplicate the option.

Perhaps the ambient-caps option should implicitly raise inheritable
caps if they're not already raised.  Or maybe the absence of an
inh-caps rule should cause any requested ambient caps to be made
inheritable as well.

I propose an additional --ambient-inh option to copy everything from
--inh-caps to the ambient set. Explicit is better than implicit.
