While porting ghc-mod to GHC 8 I noticed that all `-fwarn` flags are
missing from `flagsForCompletion` instead only `-fwarn-` and `-fno-warn-`
appear. This also shows up in the front-end when running `ghc --show-
options`.
Looking at the code this turned out to be because the old `-fwarn` flags
were marked as hidden using `hideFlag` and hidden flags are explicitly
filtered out in `flagsForCompletion` but for some reason the `-fwarn-` and
`-fno-warn-` prefixes still show up in the list.
