ENH: support predicate checks for argList (similar to dictionary methods)

- Favour use of argList methods that are more similar to dictionary
  method names with the aim of reducing the cognitive load.

  * Silently deprecate two-parameter get() method in favour of the
    more familiar getOrDefault.
  * Silently deprecate opt() method in favour of get()

  These may be verbosely deprecated in future versions.
