The converters are hooked up, including some weird magic under the hood
to automatically handle multi-values as well as the many-to-one case
of the structure. The many-to-many case of arrays/slices is not
currently handled, but it should be straightforward to do.
Hooking up subcommands should be pretty straightforward if I've
designed this correctly, so that will be next. The final major piece
of the puzzle is help text generation, which in theory can be largely
carried over from the old implementation.
The error handling is very poorly done right now as well, and I need to
figure out a strategy. My plan for converters is to pass in a writable
buffer that the parser owns that they can write messages to when they
fail, to provide useful context. I will need to figure out how this
works for recursive converters (e.g. the struct converter) since the
failure happens inside-out, but the error message will read much
better if it's composed outside-in. There are many ways to tackle this.
The code will also need to be restructured to not be a monolithic 1000
line file.
