Add stream-alarms and acknowledge-alarm to the Python CLI

Brings the Python mxgateway_cli in line with the other four client
CLIs: stream-alarms reads a bounded slice of the gateway's central
alarm feed (--filter-prefix, --max-messages, --timeout);
acknowledge-alarm is a unary session-less ack (--reference required,
--comment, --operator).
