#507: display available flags based on the .cabal file

Currently
cabal configure --help
displays only the help for the configure command in general. Often I'd
like to say what flags are available for the package in question.
Currently the only way to do this seems to be to actually look at the
.cabal file in question.
Something a bit like:
./configure --help
which shows you the generic flags like --prefix but also --enable-glade
(for example).
