feat(cli-lib-alpha): support hotswap deployments (#26786)

Closes #26785.

Exemption Request: The `cli-lib-alpha` README does not currently specify the exhaustive list of arguments, which looks like a choice, thus I did not add the new argument. Currently, no integration tests were implemented for this lib, only unit tests which I did update/add.
