[Bug 844607] [NEW] Create CLI Framework/Libraries

 

Public bug reported:

I've been having a look at bug #844604. Rather than re-inventing the wheel every time we want to do a CLI system, I propose that we create a CLI library
lib/cli.php

This should ideally give functionality for:
* retrieve arguments supplied on the CLI (e.g. --agree-to-license=yes --upgrade-only -p=letmein -e=foo@xxxxxxxxxxx)
* add a log_exit or equivelant which would exit with the appropriate exit code (0 = success, 127 = error, other supplied ints in range) and exit - e.g. cli_exit().

** Affects: mahara
