`mbed ls` should call mbedls

See original GitHub issue

As a convenience to end users having mbed ls alias to mbedls would be very nice and improve the usability of the tool.

Small note

Please remember that mbed-ls is available also as importable Python module so you can just use its API to implement your own human facing list of devices, no need to call directly mbed-ls (mbedls CLI)

>>> import mbed_lstools
>>> mbeds = mbed_lstools.create()
>>> mbeds
<mbed_lstools.lstools_win7.MbedLsToolsWin7 instance at 0x02F542B0>
>>> mbeds.list_mbeds()
[{'platform_name': 'K64F', 'mount_point': 'E:', 'target_id': '02400203D94B0E7724B7F3CF', 'serial_port': u'COM61'}]

Names are important for sure. if you introduce mbed-ls to your code you can also take advantage of detection feature and combine it with compile switch. Just like for singletest.py switch --auto works.
