`poetry run` swallows `--help` from the underlying sub-command

See original GitHub issue

I am on the latest Poetry version.
I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate.
If an exception occurs when executing a command, I executed it again in debug mode (-vvv option).

Issue

Poetry is swallowing the --help long-option and not passing it to the underlying command. In this specific example, I was trying to get the help-text from black.

(.venv) kstone@kstone-mbp ~> poetry run black --help
USAGE
  poetry run <args1> ... [<argsN>]

ARGUMENTS
  <args>                 The command and arguments/options to run.

GLOBAL OPTIONS
  -h (--help)            Display this help message
  -q (--quiet)           Do not output any message
  -v (--verbose)         Increase the verbosity of messages: "-v" for normal output, "-vv" for more verbose output and
                         "-vvv" for debug
  -V (--version)         Display this application version
  --ansi                 Force ANSI output
  --no-ansi              Disable ANSI output
  -n (--no-interaction)  Do not ask any interactive question

(.venv) kstone@kstone-mbp ~> poetry run black --version
black, version 19.3b0

The issue is in CliKit since it doesn’t respect it’s own -- stop-token when processing the help option:

Help special case: https://github.com/sdispater/clikit/blob/9b0e11e0863c9ed10bff743436ce405add0b6121/src/clikit/config/default_application_config.py#L147

Arguments are tested here: https://github.com/sdispater/clikit/blob/9b0e11e0863c9ed10bff743436ce405add0b6121/src/clikit/resolver/default_resolver.py#L117-L120

This should be fixed via c4b2c38575ff93e61044c2e67bf01a4fd03d38d0 since the double-dash was added in clikit v0.4.0
