Add the `--field-separator` flag to knife show commands

For the commands that allow you to filter which attributes it shows you
using the `--attribute` flag, add the `--field-separator` flag to allow
the user to customize which character(s) they want to use to deliniate the
attribute hierarchy.

```shell
knife node show NODE -S: -a "packages:Chef Client v12.12.15"
```
