--basedir vs. --node-directory #188

New Issue

Also I believe that some `tahoe` commands accept a final argument to be the basedir, e.g.: `tahoe create-client .` `tahoe start .` This needs to be documented in the usage strings.

I meant e.g.

tahoe create-client .
tahoe start .

I meant e.g. ``` tahoe create-client . tahoe start . ```

The "some of these accept a final argument" issue has been opened as a separate ticket: #772 (tahoe create-key-generator requires -C).

Opinions wanted on:

whether to unify these to --basedir, --node-directory, or something new like --nodedir
whether to accept the old options for backward compatibility with existing scripts and/or user habits

~~#715 has a patch for this ticket.~~ Use the patch below instead.

It adds -d/--node-directory to the node admin commands, with the same meaning as --basedir.
