[ feature request ] provide short options to long options

[nkh]

triple thumbs up for long options but for us who use moar (or any other program) in bash scripts putting three long (no status bar, continuation glyph, continuation glyph color) options means an extra line or worse an extra variable to hold the options.

I agree in principle, and I vaguely recall looking into alternatives to Go's standard library flag handling (which is what I'm using now) for this very reason.

As I recall:

• The alternatives I found didn't come with enum support, (think --statusbar={inverse|plain|bold})
• I felt that the alternatives I found were wonky to switch to

So I gave up. While not great, I think the current options handling works well enough.

What all this means is that:

• I'm not interested in spending any more time on this myself
• I am willing to accept PRs if somebody else does the work

Thus, labeling this as help-wanted.
