/// nested tuples for you, since that's what's internally used.
/// ```
/// # use badargs::arg;
/// # arg!(Force: "force", 'f' -> bool);
/// # arg!(OutFile: "outfile", 't' -> bool);
/// # arg!(SetUpstream: "set-upstream", 'x' -> bool);
/// # fn main() {
/// let args = badargs::badargs!(Force, OutFile, SetUpstream);
/// # }
/// ```
/// will be expanded into
/// ```
/// # use badargs::arg;
/// # arg!(Force: "force", 'f' -> bool);
/// # arg!(OutFile: "outfile", 't' -> bool);
/// # arg!(SetUpstream: "set-upstream", 'x' -> bool);
/// let args = badargs::badargs::<(Force, (OutFile, SetUpstream))>();
/// ```
/// This only provides a minor benefit for programs with a small amount of args, but is
/// very useful for larger arg amounts.
