This change updates the flag type used by the -autocert.hostname and -token.machine flags to flagx.StringFile. This flag type allows a single flag to pass a literal string value, e.g. the actual hostname, or a filename with the contents for the string value, e.g. the hostname in a file.
This change is in service of enabling access token verification in autonode deployments. Current users of autocert.hostname will need to be updated with a prefix of @ to read from the named file. The only known users are from https://github.com/m-lab/autonode
