This change updates our urfave/cli dependency to the v2 branch of the library.
There are some Go API changes in cli v2:
- Flag values can now be accessed using the methods ctx.Bool,
ctx.Int, ctx.String, ... regardless of whether the flag is 'local' or
'global'.
- v2 has built-in support for flag categories. Our home-grown category
system is removed and the categories of flags are assigned as part of
the flag definition.
For users, there is only one observable difference with cli v2: flags must now
strictly appear before regular arguments. For example, the following command is
now invalid:
geth account import mykey.json --password file.txt
Instead, the command must be invoked as follows:
geth account import --password file.txt mykey.json
* cmd/clef, signer/core: use better terminal input for passwords, make it possible to avoid boot-up warning
* all: move commonly used prompter to isolated (small) package
* cmd/clef: Add new --acceptWarn to clef README
* cmd/clef: rename flag 'acceptWarn' to 'suppress-bootwarn'

* Ref #19906 - replace passPHRASE with passWORD in any user interactions
this skips doccomments and variablenames to minimize impact. It does
however include a rename of the `ethkey` `changepassphrase` parameter
* console: fix JavaScript error capitalization
ethkey is a new tool that serves as a command line interface to
the basic key management functionalities of geth. It currently
supports:
- generating keyfiles
- inspecting keyfiles (print public and private key)
- signing messages
- verifying signed messages
