After internal testing and review, we reached the conclusion that using -p to
both define and filter platforms was too confusing and difficult to teach.
Additionally, there are concerns that use of flags to define platforms may not
scale, since real-life use-cases may require more than a list of commands.

Partially reverts #49.

Proposed changes

  • Remove the ability to define platforms directly via JSON files on the command line.
  • Improve error checking for -p (missed previously due to complexity of values being names or paths).

This commit is a partial revert of intel#49: the ability to filter platforms
remains, but the ability to define platforms directly via JSON is removed.
