protractor 'advertises' its --verbose option, but cannot use that

[attila123]

• Node Version: v6.9.5
• Protractor Version: 5.1.1
• Operating System and Version Linux Mint 18.1
• Steps to reproduce the bug

protractor --help tells about the --verbose option:

  --verbose                              Print full spec names

I wanted to try how it works. So I executed protractor with this flag, but apparently it cannot make sense of this --verbose option, see the warning below:

$ protractor protractor-conf.js --verbose
[14:52:16] I/launcher - Running 1 instances of WebDriver
[14:52:16] I/hosted - Using the selenium server at http://localhost:4444/wd/hub
[14:52:17] W/runner - Ignoring unknown extra flags: verbose. This will be an error in future versions, please use --disableChecks flag to disable the  Protractor CLI flag checks. 
Protractor animation is disabled
Protractor synchronization is disabled
(...)

So maybe this --verbose is a half-way done feature? I guess it should be completed or removed.

I can reproduce this as well; I pr'd the fix in #4200
