Add OptionManager#parse_known_args
If a user specified `--max-complexity` on the command-line, they
would be told that it did not exist. The same would be true of any
option provided by a plugin. This is because we parse the command-line
arguments twice in Flake8 -- the first time to specify the verbosity
and destination for logging, the second time to actually execute Flake8.
Since plugin options are not registered to start with the first time,
they are not valid options. So when we first parse the options, we should
only attempt to parse the ones which we know about.

Closes #168

========
 Flake8
========

Flake8 is a wrapper around these tools:

- PyFlakes
- pycodestyle
- Ned Batchelder's McCabe script

Flake8 runs all the tools by launching the single ``flake8`` command.
It displays the warnings in a per-file, merged output.

It also adds a few features:

- files that contain this line are skipped::

    # flake8: noqa

- lines that contain a ``# noqa`` comment at the end will not issue warnings.
- you can ignore specific errors on a line with ``# noqa: <error>``, e.g.,
  ``# noqa: E234``
- Git and Mercurial hooks
- extendable through ``flake8.extension`` and ``flake8.formatting`` entry
  points


Quickstart
==========

See our `quickstart documentation
<http://flake8.pycqa.org/en/latest/index.html#quickstart>`_ for how to install
