"sfdx commands --json" returns incorrect flag types

[mshanemc]

Summary

Flags either say their type is boolean or option, regardless of what type the actually are.

Steps To Reproduce:

1. sfdx commands --json

Expected result

flag types from https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.sfdx_cli_plugins.meta/sfdx_cli_plugins/cli_plugins_customize_parameters_types.htm

example: scrolling down to apex:file:execute

"apexcodefile": {
        "name": "apexcodefile",
        "type": "filepath",
        "char": "f",
        "description": "path to a local file containing Apex code",
        "hidden": false,
        "required": false
      }

Actual result

"apexcodefile": {
        "name": "apexcodefile",
        "type": "option",
        "char": "f",
        "description": "path to a local file containing Apex code",
        "hidden": false,
        "required": false
      }
