Code Review

This pull request introduces a call-tool subcommand, which is a great addition for testing and debugging tools directly from the CLI. The implementation is well-structured, with good test coverage and documentation updates.

I've identified a couple of areas for improvement:

  • There's some code duplication for logger and telemetry setup that could be refactored for better maintainability.
  • There's a minor bug in how a deprecated flag is marked.

Overall, this is a solid feature addition. Addressing these points will make the codebase even more robust.

feat(cli/invoke): add support for direct tool invocation from CLI (go…
18cfe87 
…ogleapis#2353)

## Description

This PR introduces a new subcommand, invoke, to the toolbox CLI. This
feature allows developers to execute tools defined in their
configuration directly from the command line.

- New Subcommand: Implemented invoke as subcommand, which handles tool
lookup, parameter unmarshaling from JSON, and invocation.
- Persistent Configuration Flags: Updated cmd/root.go to make flags like
--tools-file, --tools-folder, and --prebuilt persistent, allowing them
to be used with subcommands.
- Testing: Added unit tests for various scenarios
- Documentation: Created a new "how-to" guide for CLI tool testing and
updated the CLI reference documentation.
