Change behavior of `choco list` to be local only

[findel]

The current default behaviour of choco list (or clist) is to list ALL of the packages available on chocolatey (currently 2596 in total). This is a little slow, and not really helpful as a default.

Couldn't the default behavior be to display "local only" packages, displaying only packages that are installed locally, as when you do choco list --localonly?

Then require switches to get data from the repositories, rather than the other way around?

Implementation Notes

When this work is undertaken, the deprecation notices that were add in this PR will need to be reviewed/removed:

#2626

I love the idea of this - I want to get an idea of what it may require from other tools as this would be a breaking change.

[alexchandel]

choco list should absolutely list only locally installed packages by default. We already have choco search with no arguments to list ALL packages.

[ferventcoder]

Search and list are aliases

👍

[christianrondeau]

Agreed on list being --localonly by default, and maybe search could not be an alias anymore? I also thought that search was server-based, and list was not. It may be interesting to run a quick survey if you're not sure.

[alexchandel]

@christianrondeau I would instinctively assume list was local only, and only listed packages installed by default.

@ferventcoder Can this please happen in 0.9.9.7? It's intuitive (list gives your packages, search without any filter gives all packages), it parallels the behavior of other package managers, and it has broad support. It's a breaking change, but it affects users who are exploring chocolatey packages, not scripts (compare with choco install), so its impact is limited.

[ferventcoder]

@alexchandel it's intuitive for you but it is a breaking change, so that's why the milestone is 1.0.0. Folks need time to prepare for the break.

[ferventcoder]

@alexchandel and it is used by applications that are building on top of chocolatey.

[alexchandel]

@ferventcoder Is there any application known to use choco list instead of choco search, besides possibly ChocolateyGUI?
