Subject: "Hide" more options
The usage blob is very long. I propose that the following options are
moved to "hidden" because they are either for expert use or for very
rare cases:
--config=FILE use FILE instead of john.conf or john.ini
--make-charset=FILE make a charset file. It will be overwritten
--mem-file-size=SIZE size threshold for wordlist preload (default 5 MB)
--crack-status emit a status line whenever a password is cracked
--max-run-time=N gracefully exit after this many seconds
--regen-lost-salts=N regenerate lost salts (see doc/OPTIONS)
--plugin=NAME[,..] load this (these) dynamic plugin(s)
The --make-charset is arguable because it's a core option.
Note that "hidden" options are not really hidden anymore, but instead of
shown in the main usage blob, they are listed with --list=hidden-options.
We could also (or instead) move the format list closer to bottom as that
is (IMHO) what you most often look at.
