When changing something in the cluster, such as Timeout and doing
a config reload, the route could be closed with an `Authorization
Error` report. Moreover, the route would not try to reconnect,
even if specified as an explicit route.
There were 2 issues:
- When checking if a solicited route is still valid, we need to
check the Routes' URL against the URL that we try to connect
to but not compare the pointers, but either do a reflect
deep equal, or compare their String representation (this is
what I do in the PR).
- We should check route authorization only if this is an accepted
route, not an explicit one. The reason is that we a server
explicitly connect to another server, it does not get the remote
server's username and password. So the check would always fail.
Note: It is possible that a config reload even without any change
in the cluster triggers the code checking if routes are properly
authorized, and that happens if there is TLS specified. When
the reload code checks if config has changed, the TLSConfig
between the old and new seem to indicate a change, eventhough there
is apparently none. Another reload does not detect a change. I
suspect some internal state in TLSConfig that causes the
reflect.DeepEqual() to report a difference.
Note2: This commit also contains fixes to regex that staticcheck
would otherwise complain about (they did not have any special
character), and I have removed printing the usage on startup when
getting an error. The usage is still correctly printed if passing
a parameter that is unknown.

There were some cases where override would not work. Any command
line parameter that would be set to the type default value (false
for boolean, "" for string, etc) would not be taken into account.
I moved all the flags parsing and options configuration into
a new function, which may help reduce code duplication in
NATS Streaming.
The other advantage of moving this in a function is that it
can now be unit tested.
I am also removing call to `RemoveSelfReference()` which attempted
to remove a route to self, which has been already solved at runtime
with detecting and ignoring a route to self.
This function would be invoked only when routes were defined in
the configuration file, not in the command line parameter.
Removing this call also solves an user issue (#577)

Staticcheck has probably been updated and is finding new errors.
They have been fixed.
Also, moved the run of staticcheck before running the test suite,
so if it fails, it fails sooner ;-).
When a server is told to connect to a server (with auto-discovery),
it tries to connect once. There have been a report where that
connection fails, but would probably succeed if tried again (#408).
This new parameter allows to configure the number of times a failed
implicit connect should be tried.

Currently we allow version and help as subcommands and ignoring
others, though this conflicts with command line options as it
ignores the rest of the options and use default parameters.
Instead now we change to bail on unrecognized command to prevent
misconfigurations which may arise from this.
By default, a server is now sending to its clients the client URLs
of all servers in the cluster. This allows clients to be able
to reconnect to any server in the cluster even if those clients
were not configured with the list of servers in the cluster.
However, there may be cases where it would make sense to disable
this feature. This now can be done with this option/command line
parameter.

If the server was started with a cluster section in a configuration
file and one would want to override the routes (using `-routes`) the
server would complain that you need to use `-cluster`. Adding
an override of cluster would not work, server would still complain.
Trying to override simply the cluster listen info (without override
of routes) would also not work.
