Description

As an example, below command is used to move an application across queue.

./yarn application -movetoqueue  application_1479894790219_0002 -queue default

Inline with other application's attribute modification features such as updateTimeout or priority, movetoqueue cli command lacks unification and more complex or error prone.

Suggesting below cli command which can be used.

./yarn application -appId application_1479894790219_0002 -move default

This is inline with other commands such as

./yarn application -appId  application_1479894790219_0002 -updatePriority 8 
./yarn application -appId  application_1479894790219_0002 -updateLifetime 10

Old movetoqueue command could be still kept, but we can mark it as deprecated and mention in help message.
