Feature request: use custom preset for conventional-changelog-cli

When using conventional-changelog-cli we can use a custom preset with the -p [preset] flag. For example, I usually follow a committing style that is very similar to eslint, so I usually use -p eslint and get the expected result.

Can you add a option/flag that allows us to change the currently used preset for --conventional-commits. Currently it seems to be hard coded to use the angular preset (src/ConventionalCommitUtilities.js, lines #30 and #59).

Example option/flag, usable only with lerna publish:

-p, --conventional-preset   Change the preset for conventional-changelog

Example lerna.json option, either at the root or command.publish namespace:

"conventionalCommits": true,
"conventionalPreset": "eslint" // defaults to null

If no preset option is passed (or is null or false in the config file), the -p flag should be omitted from the call to conventional-changelog-cli, allowing for default behaviour.

@bcoe ?

I’d rather it just be an extension of the existing --conventional-commits flag, basically turning the boolean into an implicit --conventional-commits angular.
