ct version:
Version: 3.7.1
Git commit: f261a28

What happened:
My command:

ct install <Release-name> --helm-extra-args "--logs" \ 
--helm-dependency-extra-args "--skip-refresh" --charts <chart-path> --namespace <release-namespace>

fails with the error message:

Error: unknown flag: --logs
Error deleting Helm release: failed waiting for process: exit status 1

What you expected to happen:

The ct command uses the --logs flag with the helm test command to print logs from the test pods.

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):

Select a chart to install, and include a --helm-extra-args "--logs" in the ct install command.

Anything else we need to know:

This raises the question of whether the helm-extra-args flag would need to be handled differently, and whether a helm-global-extra-args flag should be considered.

Consideration should also be given to how the logs from the test pods should be split from the default logs that are produced by this command.

I'd love to see this improvement.
