Description
Request
Add a CLI flag to obal scratch as an alternative to -e build_package_archive_build_info=True.
Current:
obal scratch mypackage -e build_package_archive_build_info=True
Proposed:
obal scratch mypackage --archive-build-info
Why
- More discoverable (
--helpwould show it) - Follows standard CLI conventions (like
--commit,--check,--dist) - Commonly used in CI for extracting COPR repo URLs for repoclosure testing

Research direction
Start with the CLI entry point for obal scratch and inspect how the existing --commit, --check, and --dist options are defined and passed through. Add the discoverable --archive-build-info option as an alternative to the documented -e setting, then verify that obal scratch --help shows it and that the option enables the requested archive build information.
