CLIUtils/CLI11 v2.0.0

Version 2.0: Simplification

on GitHub

This version focuses on cleaning up deprecated functionality, and some minor
default changes. The config processing is TOML compliant now. Atomics and
complex numbers are directly supported, along with other container
improvements. A new version flag option has finally been added. Subcommands are
significantly improved with new features and bugfixes for corner cases. This
release contains a lot of backend cleanup, including a complete overhaul of the
testing system and single file generation system.

Converting from CLI11 1.9:

• Removed deprecated set commands, use validators instead. #565
• The final "defaulted" bool has been removed, use ->capture_default_str()
  instead. Use app.option_defaults()->always_capture_default() to set this for
  all future options. #597
• Use add_option on a complex number instead of add_complex, which has been removed.
