🐛 Bug Fixes
- Fix environment variables being ignored when using subparsers (#350). The _find_insertion_index() method now detects subparser commands and inserts env var / config file args before the subcommand, so the parent parser processes them correctly.
👌 Improvements
- Add input validation to ArgumentParser. init () with clear error messages (#349):
- config_file_parser_class must be a ConfigFileParser subclass (or instance); suggests formatter_class if wrong type is passed
- formatter_class validates it's a HelpFormatter subclass; suggests config_file_parser_class if swapped
- default_config_files, args_for_setting_config_path, and args_for_writing_out_config_file must be lists/tuples, not strings
- config_file_open_func must be callable
