Cli: [BUG] npm run-script --silent now broken completely

[CliffS]

Note: Issue https://github.com/npm/cli/issues/1958 refers to --silent suppressing all output.

Current Behavior:

npm run --silent script now outputs everything, eg:

$ npm run --silent checksum 

> @cliff/[email protected] checksum
> cat *coffee | cksum | cut -d' ' -f1

3115970741

In other words, the --silent flag is doing nothing.

Expected Behavior:

$ npm --version
6.14.8
$ npm run --silent checksum
3115970741

Steps To Reproduce:

See above.

Environment:

• OS: Ubuntu 20.04.1
• Node: v15.0.1
• npm: v7.0.3

We are facing the same issue. In Jenkins we use npm run -s cmd to retrieve some infos, this bug completely broke our pipelines.

@CliffS there's a typo in the title: s/rpm run-script/npm run-script/ would you mind to fix it? 🙇
