[lttng-dev] [PATCH lttng-tools 1/5] Add --mi option to the list command

From: Simon Marchi <simon.marchi at polymtl.ca>

The --mi option is used to ask lttng to print information in a format
easily understandable by another program. Currently, only session
printing is affected: it prints session names one per line.

The term mi stands for machine interface, and is stolen without any
remorse from GDB's lexicon.
