Description

This is a unambitious initial move toward standardizing the command line tools. We have favored the name --bootstrap-server in all new tools since it matches the config bootstrap.server which is used by all clients. Some older commands use --broker-list or --bootstrap-servers and maybe other exotic variations. We should support --bootstrap-server in all commands and deprecate the other options.
