Add command line parameter to specify log file (#3807)
* Add command line parameter to specify log file I had the logs of my debug helix mixed in with the logs from the production helix. Add a `--log` command line argument to redirect any logs to other files, making my debugging easier :-) * Update completion files with `--log` argument
