Description

cmd/client/client.go should be updated to allow the checkpoints for a single witness to be fetched. At the moment it only supports getting all checkpoints for all witnesses.

Research direction

Start by reading cmd/client/client.go and identify how the CLI currently fetches checkpoints for all witnesses. Extend that path to accept a single-witness selection while preserving the existing all-witness behavior. Done means the CLI can fetch checkpoints for one specified witness and still supports fetching all checkpoints.
