iotedge check-list doesn't run

[gavinltomra]

Expected Behavior

sudo iotedge check-list should display a list of the supported checks.
sudo iotedge check --help should display additional help for the check command.

Current Behavior

Both behave identically to sudo iotedge check.

Steps to Reproduce

Provide a detailed set of steps to reproduce the bug.

1. sudo iotedge check-list
2. sudo iotedge check --help

Also of note is that the iotedge check command appears to ignore other arguments, like --help and --dont-run.

Not relevant.

Additional Information

The aziotctl command behaves as expected; check-list works and check --help shows help, and check --dont-run skips the requested checks.

Also, part of the reason why I want to skip certain checks is that the timeouts are insanely long; if you're in a heavily-firewalled environment that blocks aka.ms or AMQP/MQTT ports then you have to sit through multiple ~70s timeouts.

Ok, I've just found that some Clever Person™ put in an alias which was causing the incorrect behaviour of iotedge check. So that part of the issue is resolved now as an environmental bug on my end.

I'd still like to know if there's a way to reduce the check timeouts or (on a particular device) disable certain checks via config file.
