The `--internal-topics` option is especially useful when there are prefix conflicts between applications, e.g. "app" and "app-v2". In this case, if we want to reset "app", the reset tool's default behaviour will delete both the internal topics of "app" and "app-v2" (since both are prefixed by "app-"). With the `--internal-topics` option, we can provide internal topic names for "app" and delete the internal topics for "app" without deleting the internal topics for "app-v2".

Add an option to the streams reset tool.

--internal-topics <String: list>    Comma     Comma-separated list of internal topics to
                                      to delete. 
Must be a subset of the
                                      internal topics marked for deletion by
                                      the default behaviour (do a                       If omitted, this will default to topics with names 
                                     that start with "<application.id>-"dry-run without this
                                      option to view these topics).

Proposed Changes

Add an internal-topics option to streams reset tool.

The `--internal-topics` option will take a comma-separated list of internal topics to be deleted. These topics must be a subset of those flagged as internal during a `--dry-run` without the `internal-topics` option. If omitted, the tool will default to the original behaviour, i.e. delete all topics that start with "<application.id>-".
