MozReview Request: Bug 1173502 - add cmdline options to set prefs (same as in mozprofile). r=dburns

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:38.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/38.0 Iceweasel/38.0.1
Build ID: 20150526223604

Steps to reproduce:

I want to write and run unit tests for an extension, using Marionette.
I've got tests written for Mozmill, which I want to migrate to Marionette.


Actual results:

Mozmill has CLI options like `--pref` and `--addon`. They are passed to MozProfile.
Marionette does not have such CLI options.


Expected results:

It would help a lot if Marionette had a possibility to pass options to MozProfile.
--addon is already there, but --pref/--preferences are missing.

Seems to work well locally - adapted from mozregression, https://github.com/mozilla/mozregression/blob/master/mozregression/cli.py#L300.
