Preferring dash over underscore in command-line options. Add `--command-arg-name` to the argument parser. The old arguments with underscores `--command_arg_name` are kept for backward compatibility.
Both dashes and underscores are used in the PyTorch codebase. Some argument parsers only have dashes or only have underscores in arguments. For example, the `torchrun` utility for distributed training only accepts underscore arguments (e.g., `--master_port`). The dashes are more common in other command-line tools. And it looks to be the default choice in the Python standard library:
`argparse.BooleanOptionalAction`: 4a9dff0e5a/Lib/argparse.py (L893-L895)
```python
class BooleanOptionalAction(Action):
def __init__(...):
if option_string.startswith('--'):
option_string = '--no-' + option_string[2:]
_option_strings.append(option_string)
```
It adds `--no-argname`, not `--no_argname`. Also typing `_` need to press the shift or the caps-lock key than `-`.

With ufmt in place https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/pull/81157, we can now use it to gradually format all files. I'm breaking this down into multiple smaller batches to avoid too many merge conflicts later on.
This batch (as copied from the current BLACK linter config):
* `tools/**/*.py`
Upcoming batchs:
* `torchgen/**/*.py`
* `torch/package/**/*.py`
* `torch/onnx/**/*.py`
* `torch/_refs/**/*.py`
* `torch/_prims/**/*.py`
* `torch/_meta_registrations.py`
* `torch/_decomp/**/*.py`
* `test/onnx/**/*.py`
Once they are all formatted, BLACK linter will be removed.
