The --cloudconfig CLI option  has an innaccurate name
The `--cloudconfig` option of the `planet orders create` CLI command has an inaccurate name, as it is not limited to cloud delivery configurations. 

It is entirely possible to provide a local delivery config using the `--cloudconfig` option, e.g.:
```
{  
    "archive_type": "zip",
    "single_archive": true,
    "archive_filename": "{{name}}_{{order_id}}.zip"
}
```

The option should be named `--delivery` or `--deliveryconfig`, and [the docs](https://planet-sdk-for-python-v2.readthedocs.io/en/latest/cli/cli-orders/#cloud-delivery) updated accordingly. The [equivalent SDK method](https://planet-sdk-for-python-v2.readthedocs.io/en/latest/python/sdk-reference/#planet.order_request.delivery) is more accurately named `delivery`

 2.1.0 (TBD)
 
+- The --cloudconfig option of the request command of the orders CLI has been
+  superseded by a new --delivery option, with --cloudconfig left as an alias.
+  New --archive-type, --archive-filename, and --single-archive options to
+  control the zip archiving of order outputs without any cloud storage delivery
+  have also been added (#990).

 2.1b1 (2023-07-11)
