With “apt-config dump”, one can see lots of options, but they
mostly are not documented, so for example APT::Cmd::Pattern-Only
(which only shows up in Binary::apt:: so even “apt-config dump”
hides some options unless they are used anywhere).

I would expect apt.conf(5) to document any and all configuration
items one can do to apt*, either directly or by other manpages
referenced from “SEE ALSO”.
