RFR: JDK-8230920 : jpackage problems when -input dir contains any files with "cfg" extension.

[Alexander Matveev]

Hi Andy,

Looks good.

Do you think it would be better to write CLI arguments in some internal 
format instead of just raw dump? It might be better in case if we plan 
to change CLI between versions and at same time supporting generation of 
installers for app image using different jpackage versions.

Thanks,
Alexander
