Introduce a --annotate-text that is functionally equivalent of --stdin.
--stdin does not behave as --stdin in other subcommands, such as
pack-objects whereby it takes one argument per line. Since --stdin can
be a confusing and misleading name, rename it to --annotate-text.

This change adds a warning to --stdin warning that it will be removed in
the future.

The above (including the title) uses --annotate-TEXT; the
documentation and the code seems to use --annotate-STDIN.

We probably would want to fix existing tests that use --stdin for
its originally intended purpose to use its new spelling instead, and
a single new test to ensure that use of --stdin gives a warning as
expected.

This block probably would not compile well.
