This adds support for aliases for subcommands via a new parameter to
CommandConfigurations constructors. The aliases are passed as an array
of strings, where the default is just an empty array that signifies there
are no aliases. The aliases are supported regardless of if a different
commandName is chosen or not. This also updates how subcommands show up
in the help text. Any aliases are now displayed to the right of the original
command.
In addition to the functionality itself, this change:
1. Updates some of the EndToEnd parsing tests to make sure they function
while using aliases.
2. Sprinkles mentions where I saw fit in the documentation.
3. Updates the Math example to have aliases for `math stats average`
(`math stats avg`), and `math multiply` (`math mul`).
`math`'s help text now looks like the below:
```
~ math --help
OVERVIEW: A utility for performing maths.
USAGE: math <subcommand>
OPTIONS:
--version Show the version.
-h, --help Show help information.
SUBCOMMANDS:
add (default) Print the sum of the values.
multiply, mul Print the product of the values.
stats Calculate descriptive statistics.
See 'math help <subcommand>' for detailed help.
~ math stats --help
OVERVIEW: Calculate descriptive statistics.
USAGE: math stats <subcommand>
OPTIONS:
--version Show the version.
-h, --help Show help information.
SUBCOMMANDS:
average, avg Print the average of the values.
stdev Print the standard deviation of the values.
quantiles Print the quantiles of the values (TBD).
See 'math help stats <subcommand>' for detailed help.
```
and use of the aliases:
```
~ math mul 10 10
100
~ math stats avg 10 20
15.0
```
This change does NOT add any updates to the shell completion logic for
this feature.
Fixes#248
Adds a new `AsyncParsableCommand` protocol, which provides a
`static func main() async` entry point and can call through to the root
command's or a subcommand's asynchronous `run()` method. For this
asynchronous execution, the root command must conform to `AsyncParsableCommand`,
but its subcommands can be a mix of asynchronous and synchronous commands.
Due to an issue in Swift 5.5, you can only use `@main` on an
`AsyncParsableCommand` root command starting in Swift 5.6.
This change also includes a workaround for clients that are using Swift 5.5.
Declare a separate type that conforms to `AsyncMainProtocol` and add the `@main`
attribute to that type.
```
@main enum Main: AsyncMain {
typealias Command = <#command#>
}
```
