Jeremy Evans fd817a34a1 Add a golden files approach to testing the cli ...

Each golden file filename is in the format:

* status-cmd line.txt
* status[confirm_prompt:prompt]-cmd line.txt
* status[command_execute:command]-cmd line.txt

Command line is mangled with `_` -> `/`, and then `pg/dump` -> `pg_dump`.

It was substantial work to set up the necessary mocking of ids to
get consistent output.

If the golden files spec fails, it tells you were you can see the
differences, and it doesn't delete the recorded files from
spec/routes/api/cli/spec-output-files, so if you are updating and
the changes are expected, you can copy the files to
spec/routes/api/cli/golden-files and commit them.

This handles all cli commands, and most commands tests both the success
and failure cases. The pg failover success case is not tested as that
needs special setup.
