scalar: add --[no-]src option

Some users have strong aversions to Scalar's opinion that the repository should be in a 'src' directory, even though this creates a clean slate for placing build artifacts in adjacent directories. The new --no-src option allows users to opt out of the default behavior. While adding options, make sure the usage output by 'scalar clone -h' reports the same as the SYNOPSIS line in Documentation/scalar.txt.
