Rework /spectate command

The /spectate command really feels weird. First, it's arguments are reversed compared to the /tp and /teleport commands.

Then, to stop spectating, you must use the empty /spectate command. As a consequence, to make a player stop spectating, you are forced to use the /execute command. This is a problem.

Finally, locking a player to an entity would be great. This would make him spectate the entity, but would prevent him to leave this spectating state by pressing Shift.

In the end, a great syntax would be:

/spectate start <player> <target> [locked:bool]
/spectate stop <player>

    This thread was good until you said the word "gamerule."

    Not everything needs a gamerule. Please, people need to stop asking for /gamerule fixMyVerySpecificProblem

    That would be amazing! Sure, you can make it a looping function with spectate command, but still, FOV change is really annoying. A "lock" argument would be superb
