To match the new webapi style, and to avoid interface churn in the future, I think we should change our CLI commands to use --format= instead of --mutable and --mutable-type= .

Of course --mutable will imply --format=SDMF, for backwards compatibility. (we could argue that --mutable should mean "use whatever your gateway's default mutable format is", but that either requires that the CLI tools use the now-deprecated mutable=true queryarg, or we invent a fourth value for the format= queryarg which means "your default mutable type", and I think that simply implying SDMF is easier)
