Make "secret" installer options public and documented? #1432

Description

@fingolfin

Searching through the sources here, I discovered I can do this:

curl -fsSL https://install.julialang.org | sh -s -- \
    --path $JULIAUP_DEPOT_PATH \
    --yes \
    --add-to-path=no \
    --background-selfupdate=0 \
    --startup-selfupdate=0 

The last three options are undocumented. I'd love to use them, but am worried that they might go away one day, as they are undocumented.

It would be great if those could be declared "official" (i.e. won't be removed over night), and documented. I can provide a PR for the latter, but obviously project leadership has to do the former.
