Describe the bug

If cdk flags is run with only --set, or only --set --recommended it should require option --all or --unconfigured.

Currently, the commands below complete but don't do anything:

cdk flag --unstable=flags --set


cdk flags --unstable=flags --set --recommended

Regression Issue

• Select this option if this issue appears to be a regression.

Current Behavior

Reproduction Steps

cdk flags --unstable=flags --set --recommended

or the following

cdk flag --unstable=flags --set

Possible Solution

Validation at yargs to ensure that --set is run with additional options.
