1518314 - talos help text for deprecated "sps" commands should point to hyphenated --gecko-profile options, not camelcase --geckoProfile options

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Testing :: Talos, enhancement)

Description

[Daniel Holbert [:dholbert]]

./mach talos-test --help has a confusing papercut right now.

It says this:

--spsProfile (Deprecated - Use --geckoProfile instead.) Profile the
run and output the results in $MOZ_UPLOAD_DIR.

...but then it doesn't have anything about --geckoProfile. Instead, it offers this slightly different spelling:

--gecko-profile Profile the run and output the results in [...]

As it turns out, both --gecko-profile and --geckoProfile will work (for now, see bug 1518313), but we only offer help text for the hyphenated version. So, we should update the deprecation message to point to the hyphenated version too.

(We can make this help-text-tweak independently from & prior to bug 1518313 -- and we probably should do so.)

Historical note: it looks like bug 1502922 added the hyphenated commands (and suppressed the help text for the camelcase commands).
