Could we make the `configDir` parameter a general parameter that goes
before `run`, `list`, `cancel`, etc.? Don't know if that is too tricky but it
would make sense because it is a general configuration key.
`flink --configDir /my/custom/dir run -p 10 /path/to/jar`
That way the config parameter wouldn't have to be listed for every action.
Would make the help look less verbose.
You could parse the config parameter in the constructor and initialize the
config only once. Then continue with the normal parsing.
