Easily switch from "AM" to "AppMan" and back to "AM"
Improved the option --user or appman, now its easier to switch from a CLI to another.
To enable the "AppMan Mode" in "AM" use the command:
am --user
An empty file named "appman-mode" will be created in "$HOME"/.config/appman, near the existing "appman-config" file.
In this way "AM" will be able to manage apps locally using the configuration files of "AppMan".
Having also "AppMan" installed near "AM" is no more necessary.
To use "AM" as "AM" normally, at system level, run the command:
am --system
The empty file named "appman-mode" will be removed from "$HOME"/.config/appman and "AM" will handle the apps installed at system level.
Here is a quick view using the option -f and -i in "AppMan Mode":

The new option "--system" can be used also from "AppMan" but the option "--user" is not allowed, as always, for obvious reasons.
Also, the new "AppMan Mode" relies on the configuration files of "AppMan" and uses all its modules.
This feature is very useful in systems managed by multiple users, allowing at least local installation of applications and without having to install "AppMan" externally.
