Allow non standard option names like -option (#1078)
This has been bounced around for a couple years now 

#474 and a few others have expressed desire to work with non-standard
option names. We have been somewhat resistant to that but I think it can
be done now. This PR adds a modifier `allow_non_standard_option_names()`
It is purposely long, it is purposely off by default. But what it does
is allow option names with a single `-` to act like a short option name.
With this modifier enabled no single letter short option names are
allowed to start with the same letter as a non-standard names. For
example `-s` and `-single` would not be allowed.
