Bandit automatically [uses any .bandit file] within the directories on
which it is invoked. Since ALE invokes bandit on stdin, it does not
load a .bandit file automatically. Add support for automatically
finding a .bandit file and passing it to bandit via the --ini option
along with a variable to disable this behavior if desired.
Note: This is useful for the skips and tests configuration options, but
not exclude which would require invoking bandit using a file name, which
may or may not be a good trade-off.

Pylint only [checks for pylintrc] (and .pylintrc) files in the packages
aboves its current directory before falling back to user and global
pylintrc. For projects with a src dir, running pylint from the
directory containing the file will not use the project pylintrc.
Adopt the convention used by many other Python linters of running from
the project root, which solves this issue. Add pylintrc and .pylintrc
to FindProjectRoot. Update docs.

* The README now points to a valid helptag for linter options.
* The now very, very large part of the table of contents for linter and
fixer options has been moved into a section so the initial table is
smaller.
* Special linter or fixer options now lie beneath the general linter
or fixer options.
Although using %t to lint changes was desirable, many pylama checks use
surrounding paths and file contents (e.g. C0103 module name, E0402
relative import beyond top, etc.) The more such errors I find during
testing, the less %t seems like a good idea. Switch to %s.
Also set `lint_file` to 1 and mark Pylama as a file linter in the docs.

As discussed in w0rp/ale#1051, there are cases where it would be useful
to be able to specify the dialect explicitly. This commit allows users
to do so using the ale_sh_shellcheck_dialect variable.

The vulture linter already supports ale_python_vulture_options, but it
is not documented or tested. Since vulture only supports configuration
via options, it is an important use case. Add docs and test.

* Support filtered jump based on loclist item type (E or W for now)
* Use flags to customize the behavior of ALENext and ALEPrevious
* Update <plug> bindings with flags
* Update documentation about ALENext and ALEPrevious
* Use ale#args#Parse in JumpWrap
A new function is added here which will later be modified for public use
in linter and fixer callbacks. All linting and fixing now goes through
this new function, to prove that it works in all cases.
The executable for the Alex linter is currently hard-coded as 'alex',
which is an issue given the fact that it conflicts with the Haskell
lexer generator, whose executable is also called 'alex', has been around
a dozen years before the linter, and is packaged in the official
repositories of the major Linux distributions.
This commit adds options to use a local executable for the alex linter
(which is a node package), and an option to set a custom executable.
As side changes:
* The pattern in the alex handler is made more readable by turnig it
into a very-magic regex.
* Alex handles plain text, markdown, and HTML. Specific flags for HTML
and markdown are provided when instantiating the linters for the
respective filetypes, while before those formats were treated as plain
text.
Similar to other linters/fixers, by default change to the directory of
the file being fixed before invoking `black`, which allows the tool to
read project-specific configuration (pyproject.toml)
Fixes#2218
