Description

By inspecting the code in src/Language/Haskell/Liquid/UX/CmdLine.hs we see that the contents of the env var is parsed as a single argument. This should be changed to deal with multiple arguments. And we should confirm this bug, since we didn't discover it with a test but by code inspection.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Modify the parsing in CmdLine.hs to split the environment variable LIQUIDHASKELL OPTS into multiple arguments instead of treating it as a single argument.
