baude 4344639508 podman import, load, and commit are too verbose
The progress should not be show for import, load, and commit.  It makes machine
parsing of the output much more difficult.  Also, each command should output an
image ID or name for the user.

Added a --verbose flag for users that still want to see progress.

Resolves issue #450

NAME

podman commit - Create new image based on the changed container

SYNOPSIS

podman commit TARBALL [--author|-a] [--change|-c] [--message|-m] [--help|-h] [--verbose]

DESCRIPTION

podman commit creates an image based on a changed container. The author of the image can be set using the --author flag. Various image instructions can be configured with the --change flag and a commit message can be set using the --message flag. The container and its processes are paused while the image is committed. This minimizes the likelihood of data corruption when creating the new image. If this is not desired, the --pause flag can be set to false. When the commit is complete, podman will print out the ID of the new image.
