Users should generally observe no difference as long as they don't use
unintended option forms. Behavior changes:
* `-t=d` is removed. Use `-t d` instead.
* `--demangle=false` and `--demangle=0` cannot be used. Omit the option or use `--no-demangle`. Other flag-style options don't have `--no-` forms.
* `--help-list` is removed. This is a `cl::` specific option.
* llvm-readobj now supports grouped short options as well.
* `--color` is removed. This is generally not useful (only apply to errors/warnings) but was inherited from Support.
Some adjustment to the canonical forms
(usually from GNU readelf; currently llvm-readobj has too many redundant aliases):
* --dyn-syms is canonical. --dyn-symbols is a hidden alias
* --file-header is canonical. --file-headers is a hidden alias
* --histogram is canonical. --elf-hash-histogram is a hidden alias
* --relocs is canonical. --relocations is a hidden alias
* --section-groups is canonical. --elf-section-groups is a hidden alias
OptTable avoids global option collision if we decide to support multiplexing for binary utilities.
* Most one-dash long options are still supported. `-dt, -sd, -st, -sr` are dropped due to their conflict with grouped short options.
* `--section-mapping=false` (D57365) is strange but is kept for now.
* Many `cl::opt` variables were unnecessarily external. I added `static` whenever appropriate.

This is similar to D83530, but for llvm-objdump.
The motivation is the desire to add an `llvm-otool` symlink to
llvm-objdump that behaves like macOS's `otool`, using the same
technique the at llvm-objcopy uses to behave like `strip` (etc).
This change for the most part preserves behavior. In some cases,
it increases compatibility with GNU objdump a bit. For example,
the long options now require two dashes, and the long options
taking arguments for the most part now require a `=` in front
of the value. Exceptions are flags where tests passed the
value separately, for these the separate form is kept as
an alias to the = form.
The one-letter short form args are now joined or separate
and long longer accept a =, which also matches GNU objdump.
cl::opt<>s in libraries now have to be explicitly plumbed
through. This patch does that for --x86-asm-syntax=, but
there's hope that we can remove that again.

--help and -h are automatically supported by the command-line parser,
unless overridden by the tool. The behaviour of the PrintHelpMessage
being used for -h prior to this patch is subtly different to that
provided by --help automatically (it omits certain elements of help text
and options, such as --help-list), so overriding the default is not
desirable, without good reason. This patch removes the explicit
specification of -h and its behaviour, so that the default behaviour is
used.

Summary:
By default, `parseCommandLineOptions()` will accept either a
`-` or `--` prefix for long options -- options with names longer than
a single character.
While this change does not affect behavior, it will be helpful with a
subsequent change that requires long options use the `--` prefix.

We use both -long-option and --long-option in tests. Switch to --long-option for consistency.
In the "llvm-readelf" mode, -long-option is discouraged as it conflicts with grouped short options and it is not accepted by GNU readelf.
While updating the tests, change llvm-readobj -s to llvm-readobj -S to reduce confusion ("s" is --section-headers in llvm-readobj but --symbols in llvm-readelf).

Summary: Add DefaultOption flag to CommandLineParser which provides a
default option or alias, but allows users to override it for some
other purpose as needed.
Also, add `-h` as a default alias to `-help`, which can be seamlessly
overridden by applications like llvm-objdump and llvm-readobj which
use `-h` as an alias for other options.
(relanding after revert, r358414)
Added DefaultOptions.clear() to reset().
