Description

I have run dmypy as follows on my project

dmypy run -- src --strict --install-types --non-interactive

The daemon does not install types, however; the flag seems to be silently ignored.

Mypy version 0.931.

Research direction

Reproduce the reported dmypy run -- src --strict --install-types --non-interactive command with mypy 0.931, then trace how dmypy run parses and forwards these options. Done means the daemon honors --install-types and --non-interactive instead of silently ignoring the installation request.
