This closes #153

I ended up going with the suggestion for specifying that all processes should auto restart by passing in all, i.e. overmind start -r all rather than adding another flag that is specifically for auto restarting all, i.e. overmind start --auto-restart-all. I thought this was slightly more intuitive, especially since this is how setting formation is already handled.

Let me know what you think!

@dunkmann00 Thanks for this pr!

Look at line 96

(h.AnyCanDie || utils.StringsContain(canDie, e.OrigName)),

They use a boolean to indicate all can die, not all string. Maybe you should make it a boolean so it's consistent.

Thanks @oofdog! Like I said in my initial comment of this PR, after seeing the suggestion in #153, I thought using all made more sense.

Just to add some more detail -
There is precedent for this in Overmind. Setting the number of instances of a process (formation) uses all as well.

From the Readme:

There is a special name all that you can use to scale all processes at once:

$ overmind start -m all=2,worker=5
$ OVERMIND_FORMATION=all=2,worker=5 overmind start

IMHO, I think changing can-die to support all (or any if preferable) would be better for consistency and simplicity.

P.S. Here is where formation is handled in the code:

num := 1
if fnum, ok := formation[name]; ok {
num = fnum
} else if fnum, ok := formation["all"]; ok {
num = fnum
}
