Profiles as default argument in commands about hostctl HOT 3 CLOSED

To maintain compatibility with all other commands, you need to use --profile,-p. But this is something I'm thinking on changing at some point, not sure.

from hostctl.

profiles are First-class citizen in hostctl. It only makes sense to not require a flag to enter them in the first place.

add domains could be a flag itself: add --domain,-d, since it doesn't have any special flags or behavior from the add command, making profile default argument.

~ hostctl add -h
Reads from a file and set content to a profile in your hosts file.
If the profile already exists it will be added to it.

Usage:
  hostctl add [profile] [flags]

Flags:
  -f, --from string        file to read
  -h, --help                   help for add
      --host-file string   Hosts file path (default "/etc/hosts")
  -d, --domain string   Append content to your host file or profile
  -q, --quiet                   Run command without output

ex: hostctl add awesome -d test.loc another.loc --ip 123.123.123.123

from hostctl.

For now I think that for commands that make sense I could support both options:

hostctl toggle awesome == hostctl toggle -p awesome

When I'm done with all features that I have in mind, I'll think on this breaking change. I think it makes total sense, but it requires to change semantics on almost all commands.
