/**
* A help formatter that allows configuration of overall row width and column separator width.
*
* The formatter produces output in two sections: one for the options, and one for non-option arguments.
*
* The options section has two columns: the left column for the options, and the right column for their
* descriptions. The formatter will allow as much space as possible for the descriptions, by minimizing the option
* column's width, no greater than slightly less than half the overall desired width.
*
* The non-option arguments section is one column, occupying as much width as it can.
*
* Subclasses are free to override bits of this implementation as they see fit. Inspect the code
* carefully to understand the flow of control that this implementation guarantees.
