feature request: toggle output of link column in long format

[draptik]

Description

We can already hide the group column with -G.

Can we also have a flag for hiding the "link" column (see screenshot)? This is the column between the permissions and the username column.

Sure, we could introduce a new command line option, say --no-hardlinks (so it does not interfere with GNU ls command line options). You'd like to come up with a PR?

sorry, I won't be able to provide a PR because my ruby skills are close to zero :-(

As a test, I added the option --no-hardlinks to hide the link column.
How is this?

@t-mangoe looks great!

Thank you for your comment.
I am thinking of adding a test and sending a pull request.
It may take some time, so I hope you will be patient.
