Description
ParamWithOptions is used to register workflow GUI parameter that have options.
If the sciline type that is associated with the GUI parameter has a default value in the workflow, then the instantiation of the parameter widget fails with the error:
TypeError: ParamWithOptions.__init__() missing 1 required keyword-only argument: 'options'
If the sciline type does not have a default value then it works.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the workflow GUI parameter instantiation with ParamWithOptions when the associated sciline type has a default value, then compare it with a type without one. Trace how the widget is constructed and ensure the default-value case no longer raises the missing options TypeError while options remain available.
