Grafana-CLI: Wrapper for `grafana-cli` within RPM/DEB packages and config/homepath are now global flags (#17695) * Feature: Introduce a grafana-cli wrapper When our users install the *nix packed version of grafana, tendency is to use the services and scripts installed as part of the package for grafana-server. These leverage the default configuration options by specifying the several default paths. This introduces a similar approach for the grafana-cli binary. We exposed it through a wrapper to ensure a proper configuration is in place. To enable that, we add the .real suffix to the original binary (grafana-cli.real) and then use a bash script named grafana-cli as the wrapper. * Make the config and homepath flags global * Introduce `configOverrides` as a global flag This flag allows us to pass configuration overrides as a string. The string follows the convention of configuration arguments separated by a space e.g. "cfg:default.paths.data=/dev/nullX cfg:default.paths.logs=/dev/nullX" Also, it is backwards compatible with similar the previous configuration method through tailing arguments. Tailing arguments take presedence over the configuration options string. * Only log configuration information in debug mode * Move the grafana-cli binary to $GRAFANA_HOME/bin As part of the package install process, we copy all the release files and directories into the grafana home directory. This includes the /bin folder from where we copied the binaries into their respective destinations. After that, the /bin folder gets deleted as we don't want to keep duplicates of the binaries around. As part of this commit, we moved the re-creation of /bin within grafana-home and the copy of the original binary (again) after the folder gets deleted.
