When the 'flask' command is used with only the '--help' parameter, this change will make sure to try and load the app before the help callback is run. This was previously only being done when the 'flask' command was used by itself. This meant when passing in '--help', any custom commands were not getting shown in the help message. With this change, custom commands will be included in the help message when running 'flask' on the command line by itself or with the '--help' parameter.
