 * such as --settings which affects configuration loading. For normal flag parsing,
 * rely on Commander.js which handles this automatically.
 *
 * @param flagName The flag name including dashes (e.g., '--settings')
 * @param argv Optional argv array to parse (defaults to process.argv)
 * @returns The value if found, undefined otherwise

/**
 * Handle the standard Unix `--` separator convention in CLI arguments.
 *
 * When using Commander.js with `.passThroughOptions()`, the `--` separator
 * is passed through as a positional argument rather than being consumed.
 * This means when a user runs:
 *   `cmd --opt value name -- subcmd --flag arg`
 *
 * Commander parses it as:
 *   positional1 = "name", positional2 = "--", rest = ["subcmd", "--flag", "arg"]
 *
 * This function corrects the parsing by extracting the actual command from
 * the rest array when the positional is `--`.
 *
 * @param commandOrValue - The parsed positional that may be "--"
 * @param args - The remaining arguments array
 * @returns Object with corrected command and args
