Description

Now with #354 is about to finish up, it might be valuable to support using hostnames in `coordinators` command in fdbcli. This command allows admin/user to change the cluster to use a new set of coordinators and currently only accepting IP addresses.

Research direction

The issue does not name files or tests; start by locating the fdbcli implementation and tests for the `coordinators` command. Trace how coordinator arguments are parsed and validated, then verify that hostnames are accepted alongside IP addresses without breaking the existing command behavior.
