Make commands more easily reusable outside of CLI #1085

Description

@jkosh44

In Issue #983 some people expressed a desire to be able to reuse commands outside of the CLI, for example in APIs and UIs. PR #1083 helped with this by removing System.exit from the commands themselves and restructuring the module so you don't have to call the main method on a command to execute it.

The following three issues still make it difficult for the commands to be reusable:

  1. Many of the commands directly print to System.out or log to a Logger.
  2. Many of the commands rely on side effects instead of returning a meaningful response (ex: FluoList, FluoStatus).
  3. There's no way to set the options of a command.
