Shorten service sub-commands
metadata-init Init metadata file with providing protobuf directory
(which we publish in IPFS) and display_name
(optionally encoding, service_type and
payment_expiration_threshold)
metadata-set-fixed-price
Set pricing model as fixed price for all methods
metadata-add-group Add new group of replicas
metadata-add-endpoints
Add endpoints to the groups
metadata-add-description
Add service description
publish-in-ipfs Publish metadata only in IPFS, without publising in
Registry
publish Publish service with given metadata
update-metadata Publish metadata in IPFS and update existed service
update-add-tags Add tags to existed service registration
update-remove-tags Remove tags from existed service registration

metadata-prefix is unnecessary -

I agree that snet service commands are rather long and we probably should do something with it.
But it will be really confusing to simply remove metadata- and update- prefix (we would have, for example, add-tags and add-group with very similar name but with very different semantic.)
metadata- prefix shows that this function is working with metadata locally!
update- - prefix indicate that we make real update of data in registry.
We could simply make separate set of commands snet service-metadata and move all metadata related function there....
Good point about add-tag and add-group.
I think putting things that work on the local file under snet service-metadata or just snet metadata would be good. It wasn't clear to me that all metadata- prefix meant working with a local file. But I see that pattern now! If it was it's own command it could have a explanation in the --help explaining that these all just modify a local file until you publish/update.
I feel like publish-in-ipfs, publish, update-metadata are all variants of publish and should be controlled by a single publish/push command that either has subcommands or flags to choose what to publish or whether to force it to create a new service rather than update an existing one.
