`hab svc edit` command for manipulating a loaded service's Spec
When a service is loaded an operator is given the time to pass flags which will describe how the service behaves such as --topology, --strategy, and --bind. These flags are translated into a definition called a Service Spec which is then written to disk. We currently have no way of updating a Service Spec without completely restarting a service.
We should consider adding a hab svc edit <service> command which will allow an operator to modify the Service Spec to, for example, add or subtract a service bind or change the service's update strategy. We will need to be careful to ensure that any changes to the Service Spec do not cause the service to be restarted. We will want to avoid causing an outage by making these modifications.
This is especially required if a service updates and has a new required bind. This particular case relates to #5197.
