We currently have too many arguments with limitations on which combination of arguments are allowed. We should try to condense into more specific ones that fit the use of the query_tester.
One idea could be to condense it down to:

• --mode record (equivalent to --mode run --out result)
• --mode record-oneline (equivalent to --mode run --out oneline)
• --mode compare (unchanged)
• --mode normalize-check - check whether a results file is normalized
• --mode normalize-results - normalize results file. this will likely only be used in the case of handwritten tests that might need to be normalized. --mode record(and record-oneline) should take care of generating normalized results)

The goal above is to eliminate the --out argument.
There are probably other ways in which we can simplify the command line args for query_tester
