Property getter with --apihost argument modifies configuration

[joe4dev]

whisk CLI version 2019-05-30T22:04:28+00:00

The property getter ibmcloud fn property get --apihost actually changes the whisk API host property.
Example changing to an empty string (because I intend to query apihost and the space between the raw output flag is interpreted as empty string):

Example changing to arbitrary values:

This behavior is extremely confusing and unexpected.
Probably related to apache/openwhisk-cli#435
and also to apache/openwhisk-cli@23de5a3

Notice that the same buggy behavior does not happen in the latest 76203e8 open source version of wsk:
