REVISION SUMMARY
  Now that we're using CBOR in the new wire protocol, let's convert
  command requests to it.
  
  Before I wrote this patch and was even thinking about CBOR, I was
  thinking about how commands should be issued and came to the
  conclusion that we didn't need separate frames to represent the
  command name from its arguments. I already had a partially
  completed patch prepared to merge the frames.
  
  But with CBOR, it makes the implementation a bit simpler because
  we don't need to roll our own serialization.
  
  The changes here are a bit invasive. I tried to split this into
  multiple commits to make it easier to review. But it was just too
  hard.
  
  - "command name" and "command argument" frames have been collapsed into a "command request" frame.
  - The flags for this new frame are totally different.
  - Frame processing has been overhauled to reflect the new order of things.
  - Test fallout was significant. A handful of tests were removed.
  
  Altogether, I think the new code is simpler. We don't have
  complicated state around receiving commands. We're either receiving
  command request frames or command data frames. We /could/
  potentially collapse command data frames into command request
  frames. Although I'd have to think a bit more about this before
  I do it.

-   *Command Argument* frames containing command argument data.
+   Command request continuation. When set, this frame is a continuation
