One can now use `AppSettings::AllowNegativeNumbers` which functions similar to `AllowLeadingHyphen`
with the exception that only unknown numbers are allowed have a preceding hyphen character.
See the documentation for details and examples.

Added same alias funtionality for flags, now you can do:
```
Arg::with_name("flg")
.long("flag")
.short("f")
.alias("not_visible_flag")
.visible_alias("awesome_v_flag")
```

There are some cases where you need to have an argument to have an
alias, an example could be when you depricate one option in favor of
another one.
Now you are going to be able to alias arguments as follows:
```
Arg::with_name("opt")
.long("opt")
.short("o")
.takes_value(true)
.alias("invisible")
.visible_alias("visible")
```
Closes#669
Previously one could only hide the possible values of an argument application or command wide, and
not on a per argument basis. Now one can use the `Arg::hide_possible_values(bool)` method to hide
only that arguments possible values.
Closes#640
Prior to this commit, clap would mangle help messages with hard newlines
(see #617). After this commit, clap will ignore hard newlines and treat
them like an inserted newline, properly wrapping and aligning text and
then restarting it's count until the next newline should be inserted.
This commit also removes the need for using `{n}` to insert a newline in
help text, now the traditional `\n` can be used. For backwards
compatibility, the `{n}` still works.
Closes#617
In some cases settings were only propogated down one level deep, this
commit ensures settings are propogated down through all subcommands
recursively.
Closes#638
* feat: adds App::with_defaults to automatically use crate_authors! and crate_version! macros
One can now use
```rust
let a = App::with_defaults("My Program");
// same as
let a2 = App::new("My Program")
.version(crate_version!())
.author(crate_authors!());
```
Closes#600
* imp(YAML Errors): vastly improves error messages when using YAML
When errors are made while developing, the panic error messages have
been improved instead of relying on the default panic message which is
extremely unhelpful.
Closes#574
* imp(Completions): uses standard conventions for bash completion files, namely '{bin}.bash-completion'
Closes#567
* imp(Help): automatically moves help text to the next line and wraps when term width is determined to be too small, or help text is too long
Now `clap` will check if it should automatically place long help
messages on the next line after the flag/option. This is determined by
checking to see if the space taken by flag/option plus spaces and values
doesn't leave enough room for the entirety of the help message, with the
single exception of of if the flag/option/spaces/values is less than 25%
of the width.
Closes#597
* tests: updates help tests to new forced new line rules
* fix(Groups): fixes some usage strings that contain both args in groups and ones that conflict with each other
Args that conflict *and* are in a group will now only display in the
group and not in the usage string itself.
Closes#616
* chore: updates dep graph
Closes#633
* chore: clippy run
* style: changes debug header to match other Rust projects
* chore: increase version
Prior to this commit if one wished to use source formatting and ignore
term width they could do `App::set_term_width(usize::MAX)` now one can
also use `App::set_term_width(0)` which does the same thing.
Closes#625
