bug: list-patches w/url on v1.9.0 returns: Illegal input: Unexpected JSON token at offset 3: Encountered an unknown key 'url' at path:

[nova2moon]

Bug description

Using older 1.8.1 it was possible to list patches using URL of patches without downloading locally, e.g:

java -jar ./morphe-cli-1.8.1-all.jar list-patches --with-packages --with-versions --with-options --patches=https://github.com/MorpheApp/morphe-patches

which would list the patches:

`INFO: Using cached patch file at morphe-temporary-files/download/MorpheApp-morphe-patches/patches-1.30.0.mpp
INFO: Index: 0
Name: Override certificate pinning
Description: Overrides certificate pinning, allowing to inspect traffic via a proxy.
Enabled: false

Index: 1
Name: Change package name
`
In 1.9.0 it fails see below

`

Also tried the full path to patches file, e.g.
--patches="https://github.com/MorpheApp/morphe-patches/releases/download/v1.30.0/patches-1.30.0.mpp"

fails in same way.

Solution

wget the patches locally and --patches=patches-1.30.0.mpp works without errors and lists the patches.
