If `--installed` is passed, only list installed formulae.
+ By default, `uses` shows all formulae that specify <formulae> as a dependency.

+ `--skip-optional` to skip `:optional` dependencies.

By default, `uses` shows usages of `formula` by stable builds. To find
cases where `formula` is used by development or HEAD build, pass
`--devel` or `--HEAD`.
