`Hash#from_argv` builds a hash from ARGV like argument vector according to
following examples: 

    '-f'                  --> { :f      => true }
    '--flag'              --> { :flag   => true }
    '--flag:false'        --> { :flag   => false }
    '--flag=false'        --> { :flag   => 'false' }
    '--option=value'      --> { :option => "value" }
    '--int=1'             --> { :int    => "1" }
    '--float=2.3'         --> { :float  => "2.3" }
    '--float:2.3'         --> { :float  => 2.3 }
    '--txt="foo bar"'     --> { :txt    => "foo bar" }
    '--txt:\'"foo bar"\'' --> { :txt    => "foo bar" }
    '--txt:%w{foo bar}'   --> { :txt    => ["foo", "bar"] }
    '--now:Time.now'      --> { :now    => #<Date: 3588595/2,0,2299161> }

Remaining arguments(non flag/options) are inserted as [:args], eg:

    Hash.from_argv %w(--foo --bar=loo 123 now)

becomes:

    { :foo => true, :bar => 'loo', :args => ["123", "now"] }

## Note on Patches/Pull Requests
 
* Fork the project.
* Make your feature addition or bug fix.
* Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a
  future version unintentionally.
* Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history.
  (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but
   bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
* Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
