FUNCTIONS

   init_cli_client
       Takes PARAMHASH containing possible parameters "distro", "sitedir", and "debug_mode". Initializes CLI
       client and returns a status object.

       The "distro" string should use hyphens instead of double-colons, i.e.  "Foo-Bar" instead of "Foo::Bar".

   normalize_filespec
       Given a filename (path) which might be relative or absolute, return an absolute version. If the path was
       relative, it will be anchored to the home directory of the user we are running as.

   init_ua
       Initialize the LWP::UserAgent singleton object.

   cookie_jar
       Return the cookie_jar associated with our user agent.

   send_req
       Send a request to the server, get the response, convert it from JSON, and return it to caller. Die on
       unexpected errors.
