With previous behavior there was no difference between Flag and Bool if
- autofill == True
- default = some value
It prevented to have a boolean which is set by default to true, but could
be set to False if users wants to without prompting in interactive shell.

Adds a parameter that represents a DateTime format using datetime.datetime
object from python's native datetime library.
In the CLI, accepts one of the following formats:
Accepts LDAP Generalized time without in the following format:
'%Y%m%d%H%M%SZ'
Accepts subset of values defined by ISO 8601:
'%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ'
'%Y-%m-%dT%H:%MZ'
'%Y-%m-%dZ'
Also accepts above formats using ' ' (space) as a separator instead of 'T'.
As a simplification, it does not deal with timezone info and ISO 8601
values with timezone info (+-hhmm) are rejected. Values are expected
to be in the UTC timezone.
Values are saved to LDAP as LDAP Generalized time values in the format
'%Y%m%d%H%SZ' (no time fractions and UTC timezone is assumed). To avoid
confusion, in addition to subset of ISO 8601 values, the LDAP generalized
time in the format '%Y%m%d%H%M%SZ' is also accepted as an input (as this is the
format user will see on the output).

When output_for_cli was called directly, rather than for values
received through XML or JSON API, joining multiple values failed
on non-strings such as DN objects.
Convert output to strings before printing it out.
Previously the help plugin failed when searching for the docstring
when a topic's module was not found. This can happen when some server
plugins are loaded (e.g. for tests).
Use empty documentation when the topic is not found.
Extracted common code from ipalib/plugins/cli.py and
ipalib/plugins/dns.py that provided way to prompt user
for the value of specific attribute.
Added prompt_param method to Command class in ipalib/frontend.py
Done as part of https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3602
ipa <command> -h only showed the summary string, not the full help.
Use the full docstring. Add a custom help formatter that disables
optparse's reformatting.

The run() method of the show_mappings command was missing
the **options parameter in its signature, causing the
ipa show-mappings to fail with an internal error.
Some commands require a connection for interactive prompting.
Prompt after the connection is created.
Option parsing is still done before connecting so that help
can be printed out without a Kerberos ticket.

Several Commands were missing the 'version' option. Add it to those
that were missing it.
Do not remove the version option before calling commands. This means
methods such as execute(), forward(), run() receive it.
Several of these needed `**options` added to their signatures.
Commands in the Cert plugin passed any unknown options to the underlying
functions, these are changed to pass what's needed explicitly.
Some commands in DNS and Batch plugins now pass version to commands
they call.
When the option is not given, fill it in automatically. (In a subsequent
commit, a warning will be added in this case).
Note that the public API did not change: all RPC calls already accepted
a version option. There's no need for an API version bump (even though
API.txt changes substantially).

Whenever a command is used incorrectly, it should output
an error message (and possibly additional help) to stderr.
This patch adds a parameter to a bunch of places to allow

Currently, we throw many public exceptions without proper i18n.
Wrap natural-language error messages in _() so they can be translated.
In the service plugin, raise NotFound errors using handle_not_found helper
so the error message contains the offending service.

Fix several problems with the callback interface:
- Automatically registered callbacks (i.e. methods named
exc_callback, pre_callback etc) were registered on every
instantiation.
Fix: Do not register callbacks in __init__; instead return the
method when asked for it.
- The calling code had to distinguish between bound methods and
plain functions by checking the 'im_self' attribute.
Fix: Always return the "default" callback as an unbound method.
Registered callbacks now always take the extra `self` argument,
whether they happen to be bound methods or not.
Calling code now always needs to pass the `self` argument.
- Did not work well with inheritance: due to the fact that Python
looks up missing attributes in superclasses, callbacks could
get attached to a superclass if it was instantiated early enough. *
Fix: Instead of attribute lookup, use a dictionary with class keys.
- The interface included the callback types, which are LDAP-specific.
Fix: Create generic register_callback and get_callback mehods,
move LDAP-specific code to BaseLDAPCommand
Update code that calls the callbacks.
Add tests.
Remove lint exceptions for CallbackInterface.

These test that command lines are parsed to correct Command arguments.
Includes some tests for interactive prompts.
To make this possible cli.run is broken up into several pieces.
Splitting on commas is not an idempotent operation:
'a,b\,c' -> ('a', 'b,c') -> ('a', 'b', 'c')
That means we can't do it when the call is forwarded, so this is only
done on the CLI. The UI already sends values as a tuple.
Replace escaping in the csv parser with quoting. Quoted strings can have
embedded commas instead of having to escape them. This prevents the csv
parser from eating all escape characters.
Also, document Param's csv arguments, and update tests.

We did not accept answers like "Yes", "YES", "No", etc. as valid
answers to yes/no prompts (used for example in dnsrecord-del

Add 2 new features to DNS record interactive help to increase its
usability and also make its behavior more consistent with standard
parameter interactive help:
1) Ask for missing DNS parts
When a required part of a newly added DNS record was missing, we
just returned a ValidationError. Now, the interactive help rather
asks for all missing required parts of all DNS records that were
being added by its parts.
2) Let user amend invalid part
When an interactive help asked for a DNS record part value and
user enters an invalid value, the entire interactive help exits
with an error. This may upset a user if he already entered several
correct DNS record part values. Now, the help rather tells user
what's wrong and give him an opportunity to amend the value.

This patch adds a common method, textui.prompt_helper, that handles
encoding, decoding and error handling for interactive prompts.
On EOFError (Ctrl+D) or KeyboardInterrupt (Ctrl+C), it raises
a new InvocationError, PromptFailed.
The helper is used in prompt, prompt_yesno, and prompt_password,
each of which originally only handled one of Ctrl+C and Ctrl+D.
This fixes https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2345
And it means prompt_yesno will no longer return None on error.
A minor fix restores errors.py's ability print out the list of
errors when run as a script.

CLI command help contains a documentation for all options that can

Complex commands may have many options or non-standard output. This

This patch changes the way plugins are initialized. Instead of
finalizing all the plugins at once, plugins are finalized only after
they are accessed (currently applies to Command, Object and
Attribute subclasses, only in CLI by default).
This change provides significant performance boost, as only the
plugins that are actually used are finalized.

Add a new required parameter, current_password. In order to ask this
first I added a new parameter option, sortorder. The lower the value the
earlier it will be prompted for.
I also changed the way autofill works. It will attempt to get the default
and if it doesn't get anything will continue prompting interactively.
Since current_password is required I'm passing a magic value that
means changing someone else's password. We need to pass something
since current_password is required.
The python-ldap passwd command doesn't seem to use the old password at
all so I do a simple bind to validate it.

In cli.py is a framework for printing out help information. The
command documentation being displayed is internationalized, however
the text generated by the help framework itself is not
internationalized.
The strings output by the help subsystem need to be internationalized.
* Wrap each topic description in _()
* Replace the use of if 'topic' in dir(module) with the more
Pythonic and efficient getattr(module, 'topic', None)
* Make sure to invoke unicode on the value returned from _()
otherwise you'll get a GettextFactory instance, not a string
* Clean up trailing whitespace errors
