Args can now be added to custom help sections. This breaks up the builder pattern a little by adding help section declarations inline, but it's the most intuitive method and doesn't require strange nesting that feels awkward.
```rust
app::new("foo")
.arg(Arg::with_name("arg1")) // under normal headers
.help_heading("SPECIAL")
.arg(Arg::with_name("arg2")) // under SPECIAL: heading
```
Closes#805
This commit primarily changes to a lazy handling of POSIX overrides by
relying on github.com/bluss/ordermap instead of the old HashMap impl.
The ordermap allows us to keep track of which arguments arrived first,
and therefore determine which ones should be removed when an override
conflict is found.
This has the added benefit of we no longer have to do the bookkeeping to
keep track and override args as they come in, we can do it once at the
end.
Finally, ordermap allows fast Vec like iteration of the keys, which we
end up doing several times. Benching is still TBD once the v3 prep is
done, but this change should have a meaningful impact.
This commit removes heavy use of macros in certain functions which
drastically increased code size. Some of the macros could be turned
into functions, while others could be removed entirely.
Examples were removing arg_post_processing! which did things like
checked overrides, requirements, groups, etc. This would happen
after every argument was parsed. This macro also had several other
macros inside it, and would expand to several tens or hundreds of
lines of code.
Then add that due to borrowck and branch issues, this macro may be
included in multiple parts of a function. Unlike traditional functions
each of these uses expanded into TONS of code (just like agressive
inlining).
This commit primarily removes those arg_post_processing! calls and
breaks up the functionality into two types. The first must happen at
ever new argument (not new value, but new argument). This is pretty
cheap. The next type was moved to the end of parsing validation section
which is more expensive, but only happens once.
i.e. clap was validating each argument/value as it saw them, now it's
lazy and validates them all at once at the end. This MUCH more
efficient!
When used with `Arg::possible_values` it allows the argument value to pass validation even if
the case differs from that of the specified `possible_value`.
```rust
let m = App::new("pv")
.arg(Arg::with_name("option")
.long("--option")
.takes_value(true)
.possible_value("test123")
.case_insensitive(true))
.get_matches_from(vec![
"pv", "--option", "TeSt123",
]);
assert!(m.value_of("option").unwrap().eq_ignore_ascii_case("test123"));
```
This setting also works when multiple values can be defined:
```rust
let m = App::new("pv")
.arg(Arg::with_name("option")
.short("-o")
.long("--option")
.takes_value(true)
.possible_value("test123")
.possible_value("test321")
.multiple(true)
.case_insensitive(true))
.get_matches_from(vec![
"pv", "--option", "TeSt123", "teST123", "tESt321"
]);
let matched_vals = m.values_of("option").unwrap().collect::<Vec<_>>();
assert_eq!(&*matched_vals, &["TeSt123", "teST123", "tESt321"]);
```
Closes#1118
If one is using a nightly Rust compiler they should compile clap
with the `nightly` feature.
```toml
[dependencies]
clap = { version = "2.27", features = ["nightly"] }
```
This isn't required for compilation to succeed, only to take
advantage of any nightly features used by clap.
If one is compiling with `#[deny(warnings)]` this commit will cause
compilation to fail if one *does not* compile with the `nightly`
since `std::ascii::AsciiExt` is no longer required in in multiple
files as of the latest Rust nightly (Nov 6th, 2017).

An arg can now conditionally require additional arguments if it's value matches a specific value.
For example, arg A can state that it only requires arg B if the value X was used with arg A. If any
other value is used with A, arg B isn't required.
