Nub 0.1.7

A CLI-focused patch: global install aliases, pnpm-only install flags, and two-tier help.

Global install aliases

nub install -g <pkg> and nub i -g <pkg> previously failed with an unexpected-argument error (#29). Both forms now route to the global-install path. Plain nub install is unchanged, and nub install -- -g still treats -g as a literal argument.

Install-family flags are pnpm-only

nub install and nub i route to the engine's add path, and the flags accepted there now match what pnpm itself accepts — Nub accepts a flag if and only if real pnpm accepts it. pnpm's lowercase save shorts are translated to the engine's long forms (-d to --save-dev, -o to --save-optional, -e to --save-exact), and -w forwards verbatim as pnpm's --workspace-root boolean. npm-only flags that pnpm rejects — --omit, --no-save, -S/--save, the npm -w <name> member selector, --workspaces — are no longer translated. A CLI-grammar parity test guards this surface.

Two-tier help

nub -h prints a curated short help; nub --help prints the full reference, including the environment-variable section. The help router covers nub help <cmd> and leaf --help, and nub --node --help / nub --node -v pass through to Node.

Build

The macOS N-API addon is now removed before the new one is copied in, avoiding a code-signing inode taint that could kill the process.
