More advanced flag help support #495

Description

@jokesper

While looking at how other programs handle flags I found some special cases:

  1. --[no-]xxxx, which is a pair of flags to override a boolean value, with one help and different resulting values.
    listing them both would also be ok (--xxxx, --no-xxxx)
    So this is a request of having one help for multiple options.
  2. -Wxxx, which is often used to enable warnings in compilers,
    -W as a short flag is trivial, but we want to have multiple help pages per option with expanded valid values.

So I would like help pages not having to be in a 1:1 relation with options.
