Rishabh Dave 9b2077ff10 cephfs-shell: set return value before exiting
Code for each command has a return value set yet cephfs-shell itself
doesn't exit with proper return value. This makes cephfs-shell quit with
zero return value all the time.

Also, many tests execute cephfs-shell commands expecting the command to
fail but without expecting the method issuing the command to fail. Fix
these test accordingly by adding a new method (negtest_cephfs_shell_cmd)
that expects the command to fail and allows verifying return value and
error messages.

=============
CephFS Shell
=============
CephFS Shell provides shell-like commands that directly interact with the
:term:`Ceph File System`.
This tool can be used in interactive mode as well as in non-interactive mode.
In former mode, cephfs-shell opens a shell session and after the given command
is finished, it prints the prompt string and waits indefinitely. When the
shell session is finished, cephfs-shell quits with the return value of last
executed command. In non-interactive mode, cephfs-shell issues a command and
exits right after the command's execution is complete with the command's return
value.
Behaviour of CephFS Shell can be tweaked using cephfs-shell.conf. CephFS Shell
looks for it by default at the path provided in environment variable
`CEPHFS_SHELL_CONF` and then in user's home directory
(`~/.cephfs-shell.conf`).
Usage :
cephfs-shell [options] [command]
cephfs-shell [options] -- [command, command,...]
Options :
-c, --config FILE Path to cephfs-shell.conf
-b, --batch FILE Path to batch file.
-t, --test FILE Path to transcript(s) in FILE for testing
.. note::
Latest version of the cmd2 module is required for running cephfs-shell.
If CephFS is installed through source, execute cephfs-shell in the build
directory. It can also be executed as following using virtualenv:
.. code:: bash
[build]$ virtualenv -p python3 venv && source venv/bin/activate && pip3 install cmd2
[build]$ source vstart_environment.sh && source venv/bin/activate && python3 ../src/tools/cephfs/cephfs-shell
