refactor: Add explicit DISALLOW_NEGATION ArgsManager flag to clarify flag usage

Browse source 
Currently, ALLOW_{INT|BOOL|STRING} flags don't do any real validation,
so current uses of these flags are misleading and will also break
backwards compatibility whenever these flags are implemented in a future
PR (draft PR is #16545).

An additional complication is that while these flags don't do any real
settings validation, they do affect whether setting negation syntax is
allowed.

Fix this mess by disabling ALLOW_{INT|BOOL|STRING} flags until they are
implemented, and adding an unambiguous DISALLOW_NEGATION flag. This is
done in two commits, with this commit adding the DISALLOW_NEGATION flag,
and the next commit disabling the ALLOW_{INT|BOOL|STRING} flags.
