Refactor #7717: Implicit `puppet apply` behaviour on the command line is
awful...

Author: Daniel Pittman
Status: Unreviewed

Affected Puppet version: 2.7.0rc3

Branch:
At the moment we have a bunch of ways to implicitly invoke `puppet apply` on
the command line, mostly in the name of backward compatibility:
<pre>
] puppet apply
] puppet -
] puppet foo.rb
] puppet foo.pp
</pre>
We also treat *anything* with a leading `-` as an implicit invocation of
`puppet apply`, presumably to support the case of `puppet --verbose` being an
apply. The last is kind of crazy, though: we don't support arguments like that
anywhere else, and it has all this strange behaviour....
We should clean this up: deprecate, or just pull, this use. It isn't like
`puppet apply ${whatever}` is much harder than `puppet ${whatever}`, and the
transformation could be done more or less mechanically...
