Description

We could have --verbose as a common command line argument that just turns up the command line logging.

Also, we need to fix the logs going to both oss-gadget.log and ossgadget-detailed.json.

Research direction

Start by locating the shared command-line entry points for all tools and the logging configuration that writes to oss-gadget.log and ossgadget-detailed.json. Determine how a common --verbose option should affect command-line logging and how the two log outputs should differ; done means every tool accepts the option and the duplicate logging behavior is resolved.
