Description

These flags represent app probes that you configure to run when docker-slim is doing dynamic analysis. It should be done separately from the existing HTTP probes.

New names:
--app-exec (was --http-probe-exec)
--app-exec-file (was --http-probe-exec-file)

New continue-after mode: app

Research direction

Trace the CLI definitions and dynamic-analysis handling for --http-probe-exec, --http-probe-exec-file, and continue-after. Separate the app probe flags from HTTP probes, add --app-exec and --app-exec-file, and make continue-after=app work; verify the existing HTTP behavior remains distinct.
