Add cli switch to inspect a file

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. We would like to use checkov in conjunction with pre-commit so that infra engineers can be notified of misconfigurations locally (and before checkov is executed in CI).

However, it seems checkov can only be run on directories. That means we cannot adopt this workflow without running static analysis on every terraform file in the repo every time we make a commit with any terraform changes – or, at best, every terraform file that shares a path with any terraform file being committed.

Describe the solution you’d like A command-line switch such as -f or --file that accepts a path to an individual file to be analyzed.

Describe alternatives you’ve considered N/A

Hey @rpdelaney, I’ve just pushed a commit to solve this one: https://github.com/bridgecrewio/checkov/pull/53 Should work now 😃
