Adding separate CLI for MI

[chanikag]

Problem

Currently MI CLI is added inside APICTL. The requirement is to do a separate release of MI CLI. These are the sub tasks.

• Add separate executables for MI CLI
• Pack MI CLI functionalities inside MI CLI too while keeping APICTL in the same way
• Test apictl and mictl executables
• Documentation

Solution

Can be implemented by adding another interface on top of cli code base to make mi first class and release the build with an mi specific way.

Currently

• the separate executables are built for both MI and APIM CTL commands

Pending items:

• Include auto completion script for MI and pack that
• Test in all the platforms
• Documentation

Update :
Auto completion scripts are added for MI and packed inside MI executable archives.
MI docs are generated

Issues:
When generating MI docs, it adds apictl command for example in most of the docs. This happens as we have hard coded the project name as apictl. Need to find a way to pass an argument or set a variable in runtime.

Update:
As a solution to the adding apictl command in examples of MI CLI docs, introduced an environment variable to separate apictl and mi flows.
