This commit enables the developer to allow setting boolean values to `false`. There already was a piece of code which indirectly allowed this, but default could never be true for bools due to jessevdk#159. With this patch, a new setting `disable-type` is introduced on boolean options. If unset, the bool variables act as before. However, if set, the user can set (and reset) the bool varaible to either `true` or `false`. The setting has three possible values: `value`. `no` and `enable-disable`. When the setting is enabled, bool values will behave as follows: | *`disable-value`* | Syntax | | `value` | `--bool[=true|false]` | | `no` | `--[no-]bool` | | `enable-disable` | `--[enable|disable]-bool` | This allows for use cases such as: ```sh alias program='program --debug` program --no-debug ``` or ```sh ./program --enable-raytracing --disable-antialiasing ```

Hi,
I'm sharing this work-in-progress code to see if this is something you would be willing to merge. So far, most of the code works, but I would need some help with:
I've also deprecated
AllowBoolValuessince this feature replaces it. In my opinion, this was not really a good place to implement it in the first place. However, I would like to open a discussion about this as well.Your response is appreciated. Thank you for the great work!
