promote aliases and flags, to ensure they have priority over config files...
promote aliases and flags, to ensure they have priority over config files add Application.flatten_flags() method, which adjusts the alias and flag dicts, such that they point to the subclass in the Application.classes list when passed to the argv parser. This prevents TerminalInteractiveShell.colors in a config file overriding `--colors` on the command-line, which points to InteractiveShell.colors. Flattening is only done when the answer is unambiguous, so multiply inherited classes (e.g. Launchers in ipcluster) are not touched. also remove now-obsolete manual workaround for this in IPClusterStart closes gh-849

def flag_calls(func):
"""Wrap a function to detect and flag when it gets called.
This is a decorator which takes a function and wraps it in a function with
a 'called' attribute. wrapper.called is initialized to False.
The wrapper.called attribute is set to False right before each call to the
wrapped function, so if the call fails it remains False. After the call
completes, wrapper.called is set to True and the output is returned.
Testing for truth in wrapper.called allows you to determine if a call to
func() was attempted and succeeded."""
