Add -ExcludeDontShow switch to New-MarkdownCommandHelp to suppress [Parameter(DontShow)] parameters

[Copilot]

Microsoft.PowerShell.PlatyPS 1.0.1 was emitting hidden parameters in generated markdown even when parameters were annotated with [Parameter(DontShow)]. This change adds an opt-in -ExcludeDontShow switch to New-MarkdownCommandHelp that aligns behavior with expected PowerShell metadata semantics by excluding hidden parameters from generated help when specified.

• What changed

  • NewMarkdownHelpCommand now exposes an -ExcludeDontShow switch parameter. When provided, TransformSettings.ExcludeDontShow is set to true for that invocation.
  • TransformBase enforces ExcludeDontShow consistently in:
    • parameter collection (GetParameters)
    • syntax generation (GetSyntaxItem, both positional and named parameter passes)

• Regression coverage

  • Added a focused Pester scenario in NewMarkdownHelp.Tests.ps1 that defines a function with:
    • one public parameter
    • two [Parameter(DontShow)] parameters
  • Asserts hidden parameters are absent from:
    • markdown parameter sections
    • imported command model parameter/syntax content

• Example scenario covered

  function Test-DontShowParameter {
      [CmdletBinding()]
      param(
          [string]$Public,
          [Parameter(DontShow)][string]$Hidden,
          [Parameter(DontShow)][string]$Break
      )
  }
  
  New-MarkdownCommandHelp -Command (Get-Command Test-DontShowParameter) -OutputFolder $TestDrive -ExcludeDontShow
  # Expected: only -Public appears in generated help content

@copilot - change implementation to have a Switch parameter called ExcludeDontShow instead of defaulting to exclude it.

Done. Added -ExcludeDontShow as a SwitchParameter on New-MarkdownCommandHelp and wired it to TransformSettings.ExcludeDontShow instead of hard-coding true. The test now passes -ExcludeDontShow explicitly. Commit: Add -ExcludeDontShow switch to New-MarkdownCommandHelp instead of hard-coding true.
