Description

User Story

As a user, I want the files status report to use a standard form for command line arguments, so that it's clear, self-documenting and easy to use.

Description / Background

We'd like to improve the way the file status report script takes command line parameters. We'd like to make it easy to set the options you want to use. We'd like it to be self-documenting, with an option for help text.

We'd like to match the setup of command line parameters used by other scripts. For example, see the following issue:

Technical Notes / Implementation Details

This should use CommandArguments in a similar way to other scripts. We can update FilesStatusReportTest to invoke the reporter with real command line arguments, similar to tests for other scripts that use CommandArguments.

For the output format, we want a way of processing this argument that will be used by all the reporting scripts.
