Title: Simple check if option is known. Should close #18.

Perhaps instead of 3 parts known-using-downloadhelper, known-no-need-for-downloadhelper and unknown-abort, we could use 2 parts: known-using-downloadhelper, everything-else-let-package-manager-decide

I prefer 2nd solution with only 2 parts but imho better error handling (this pull request implements atm 1st solution). At the moment not supported commands (apt-get):
* `source`
* `build-dep`
* `download`
* `changelog`

We should find a downloadhelper solution for the first three.

aptitude knows a lot of more commands what is an additional reason for solution 2.
