New flags added:

OPTIONS:
    -p, --plain                 Display output with --no-chars, --no-position, and
                                --border=none.
    -C, --no-chars              Whether to display the character table on the right.
    -P, --no-position           Whether to display the position indicator on the left.

Motivation was mainly for diffing two separate binary files, borders could be removed but char table and position still created a lot of noise.

Output example:

Before I proceed to review this: how does this integrate with what is being proposed in #149?

This PR does not toggle separators or modify existing border behaviour, it allows the toggling of the character table (on the right) and the hex position (on the right).
