Fork of https://github.com/sindresorhus/dargs. Converts an object of options into an array of command-line arguments. Useful when calling command-line tools. Now object-aware

#### Example
`js
var dargs = require('dargs-object');
var obj = {
foo: 'bar',
hello: true, // results in only the key being used
cake: false, // ignored
camelCase: 5, // camelCase is slugged to camel-case
multiple: ['value', 'value2'], // converted to multiple arguments
object: {test:'value'},
sad: ':('
};
var options={
excludes:['sad'],
convertCamelCase:true,
joinLists:false
};
console.log(dargs(obj, options));
/*
[
'--foo', 'bar',
'--hello',
'--camel-case', '5',
'--multiple', 'value',
'--multiple', 'value2',
'--object.test', 'value'
]
*/
