New ``Hide`` variable for all Flags

This is a way to provide hidden flags for app, command and subcommands

For example:

  --generate-bash-completion global flag shouldn't be printed along
  with other flags as it might generally confuse people into thinking
  that 'generate' in-fact would generate a bash completion file for them
  to be used along with their app.

Also in general one would want to hide some flags for their apps.
