Flags, Opts, and Positionals now store their internals using compartmented Base, Valued, and
Switched structs to keep the code duplication down and make it easier to maintain.
Iniside the src/app/parser.rs there have been several changes to make reasoning about the code
easier. Primarily moving related sections out of the large get_matches_with into their own
functions.
Now one can build CLIs that support things like `mv <files>... <target>`
There are a few requirements and caveats;
* The final positional argument (and all positional arguments prior) *must* be required
* Only one positional argument may be `multiple(true)`
* Only the second to last, or last positional argument may be `multiple(true)`
Closes#725
Prior to this commit, conflicting error messages and the suggeseted usage would depend on whether
you defined the conflict on both arguments, or just one, and the order in which you specified the
conflicting arguments at runtime.
Now they are symetrical, meaning the suggestions from the error message are consistent, and it no
longer matters if you specify the conflict in one, or both arguments.
Closes#718
Don't attempt to change the display order of flags/options until any app
settings have been propagated down from a parent App in case DeriveDisplayOrder
and/or UnifiedHelpMessage are propagated.
Fixes#706
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.
Closes#696
The new version of rustc 1.14.0-nightly (144af3e97 2016-10-02) has new
linting warnings/errors. This commit fixes them.

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
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
For example, doing `myprog help subcmd1 subcmd2` would have incorrectly
produced the usage string, `myprog subcmd2 [options]` but now correctly
prints `myprog subcmd1 subcmd2 [options]`
Closes#618
The following completion would happen (using example 17_yaml.rs):
```
$ prog <tab>
help subcmd
```
```
$ prog -<tab><tab>
--help -h (Prints help information)
--max-vals (you can only supply a max of 3 values for me!)
--min-vals (you must supply at least two values to satisfy me)
--mode (shows an option with specific values)
--mult-vals (demos an option which has two named values)
--option -o (example option argument from yaml)
--version -V (Prints version information)
-F (demo flag argument)
```
```
$ prog --<tab><tab>
--help -h (Prints help information)
--max-vals (you can only supply a max of 3 values for me!)
--min-vals (you must supply at least two values to satisfy me)
--mode (shows an option with specific values)
--mult-vals (demos an option which has two named values)
--option -o (example option argument from yaml)
--version -V (Prints version information)
```
```
$ prog --mode <tab>
emacs (shows an option with specific values) vi (shows an option with specific values)
```
```
$ prog subcmd -<tab>
--help -h (Prints help information) -B (example subcommand option)
--version -V (Prints version information)
```
```
$ prog subcmd --<tab>
--help (Prints help information) --version (Prints version information)
```
