Research direction

Review the existing kcidb-merge and kcidb-upgrade command entry points and how they are exposed to users. Define whether kcidb-merge should become kcidb-cat and kcidb-upgrade should be removed; done means the command naming and removal are consistently reflected wherever these tools are exposed.
