Description
Steps to reproduce:
Configure a notification command in notificationCommands.xml as follows:
<command binary="false">
<name>slack_channel_operations</name>
<execute>org.opennms.netmgt.notifd.SlackNotificationStrategy</execute>
<comment>Send messages to the #operations channel on Slack</comment>
<argument streamed="false">
<switch>-subject</switch>
</argument>
<argument streamed="false">
<switch>-tm</switch>
</argument>
<argument streamed="false">
<substitution>https://hooks.slack.com/services/ASDF/GHJKL/ZXCVBNMQWERTYUIOP</substitution>
<switch>-url</switch>
</argument>
</command>
Hit it with a notification.
Expected result: Notification sent to channel associated with the webhook specified with the -url switch substitution
Actual result: Notification fails to be sent, with the following appearing in notifd.log:

Workaround: Specify the webhook url using switch url rather than -url (omit the leading dash character)
Update: An equivalent problem exists with the -username, -iconurl, -iconemoji, and -channel switches. These problems can be worked around in the equivalent way as described for -url above.
