that on restart the suite would not stop again immediately.

The `cylc run` command can now accept `--initial-cycle-point=CYCLE-POINT`
(`--icp=CYCLE-POINT)` and `--start-cycle-point=CYCLE-POINT` options. This
change should allow the command to have a more uniform interface with commands
such as `cylc validate`, and with the final/stop cycle point options).
(`--icp=CYCLE-POINT)` and `--start-cycle-point=CYCLE-POINT` options, as an
alternative to a second command line argument. This is more consistent with
commands such as `cylc validate`, and with the final/stop cycle point options.

After this change:
* `cylc run SUITE POINT` is equivalent to `cylc run --icp=POINT SUITE`.
* `cylc run -w SUITE POINT` is equivalent to
`cylc run -w --start-point=POINT SUITE`.
* `cylc run -w SUITE POINT` is equivalent to `cylc run -w --start-point=POINT SUITE`.

The `cylc run` and `cylc restart` commands can now accept the
`--final-cycle-point=POINT` and `--stop-cycle-point=POINT` options. The
`--final-cycle-point=POINT` and `--stop-cycle-point=POINT` options too. The
`--until=POINT` option is now an alias for `--final-cycle-point=POINT` option.

The `cylc run` and `cylc restart` commands can now accept the new
`--auto-shutdown` option. This option overrides the equivalent suite
configuration to force auto shutdown to be enabled. Previously, it is only
possible to disable auto shutdown on the command line.
