host cname_show some-host-without-cnames.example.com. will complete silently. It would be nice if it said something about "No CNAMEs found".

Research direction
Start in mreg_cli/host.py at lines 1390-1414 and run host cname_show for a host without CNAMEs to observe the current silent result. Determine the existing output path for an empty result and verify that the command reports that no CNAMEs were found while preserving normal output when records exist.
