📄 Description

As mentioned on #28, command line arguments could use an overhaul, so kicking it off with an upgrade to clap since gumdrop seems to be no longer maintained.

I set this up to break as little as possible existing behaviour, if we are willing to change the version flag to clap default -V from -v it removes the need to have a version arg also.

Output of cargo-aur --help - Old

Usage: /home/nickd/.cargo/bin/cargo-aur [OPTIONS]

Positional arguments:
  free                 Absorbs any extra junk arguments.

Optional arguments:
  -h, --help           Display this help message.
  -v, --version        Display the current version of this software.
  -o, --output OUTPUT  Set a custom output directory (default: target/).
  -m, --musl           Use the MUSL build target to produce a static binary.
  -d, --dryrun         Don't actually build anything.

Output of cargo-aur --help - New
