-p was unclear and was in the mutually exclusive group with --packages-path, preventing combined use. This commit renames to -n/--max-packages and move it outside the exclusive group so a package limit can be specified alongside a packages path. Also, this commit fixes incrementing packages_processed when a package was skipped due to a download failure or missing source files. Signed-off-by: Francois Berder <fberder@outlook.fr>
