We aren't enumerating arguments but values for an argument, so the name
should reflect that.
This will be important as part of #1807 when we have more specific
attribute names.
This is the derive support for #3774 (see also #3775, #3777)
This combined with `value_parser` replaces `parser`. The main
frustration with this is that `ArgAction::Count` (the replacement for
`parse(from_occurrences)` must be a `u64`. We could come up with a
magic attribute that is meant to be the value parser's parsed type. We
could then use `TryFrom` to convert the parsed type to the user's type
to allow more. That is an exercise for the future. Alternatively, we
have #3792.
Prep for this included

This is part of the `App` rename.
Previously, I was concerned about not being able to deprecate
For backwards compatibility, we still expose the `IntoApp` name.
No good solution for transitioning the trate name, unfortnately, since
we can't mark `use`s as deprecated (we can, it just does nothing).
I got rid of the `into` prefix because that implies a `self` parameter
that doesn't exist.
This is a part of #2717
Some settings didn't get getters because
- They are transient parse settings (e.g. ignore errors)
- They get propagated to args and should be checked there
`is_allow_hyphen_values_set` is a curious case. In some cases, we only
check the app and not an arg. This seems suspicious.
For the derive API, you can only call `next_display_order` when dealing
with a flatten. Until we offer app attributes on arguments, the user can workaround with
this no-op flattens.
This is a part of #1807
This clarifies the intent and prepares for other functions doing the
same, like `next_display_order`. This will then open us to name
`subcommand_help_heading` and `display_order` similar.
The deprecation is waiting on 3.1.
This is part of #1807 and #1553.
