+1 on having  this feature in general. But I'm not sure I understand
why it needs the whole bespoke string-based option parsing in the
first commit. Why not use named arguments for this, i.e. have the
usage syntax be:

SELECT * FROM pg_get_role_ddl('regress_role_ddl_test3', pretty => true);

Instead of the current:

SELECT * FROM pg_get_role_ddl('regress_role_ddl_test3', 'pretty', 'true');
