[LU-18454] 'lfs migrate' command can read filenames from file/stdin

Description

This issue is splitted from LU-16789.

By Andreas:

I think "-0" should be an option for "lfs migrate" (and "lfs mirror extend") to read NUL-terminated filenames from stdin, and --files-from=FILELIST should read from a list of files, with "FILELIST=-" should indicate stdin (one file per line). This matches the option name from tar and rsync, and allows reading from both an existing file as well as a pipe.
