Inconsitent requirements on the package name parameters for add

[nlinker]

• I am on the latest Poetry version.

• I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate.

• If an exception occurs when executing a command, I executed it again in debug mode (-vvv option).

• OS version and name: Ubuntu 18.04

• Poetry version: 0.12.8

Issue

The bug is: poetry requires the parameter (package name), which is not needed and another value is not accepted.

The origin point, clean virtualenv, the project just created with new command, python requirement is changed to "^3.6":

(venv) ~/t/p/mnist ❯❯❯ ll
drwxr-xr-x   - nick 19 Nov 20:19 mnist
.rw-r--r-- 284 nick 19 Nov 20:19 pyproject.toml
.rw-r--r--   0 nick 19 Nov 20:19 README.rst
drwxr-xr-x   - nick 19 Nov 20:19 tests

1. If I omit the parameter => I got the complain, that there is no parameter

(venv) ~/t/p/mnist ❯❯❯ poetry add --path ../tensorflow-1.12.0-cp36-cp36m-linux_x86_64.whl

[MissingArguments]  
Not enough arguments

2. If I set the parameter to my own name my_tf => I got the complain, that the parameter has wrong value

(venv) ~/t/p/mnist ❯❯❯ poetry add my_tf --path ../tensorflow-1.12.0-cp36-cp36m-linux_x86_64.whl

[RuntimeError]                                                         
The dependency name for my-tf does not match the actual package's name: tensorflow  

3. If I set the parameter to the one, that encoded inside the wheel, the command succeeds:

(venv) ~/t/p/mnist ❯❯❯ poetry add tensorflow --path ../tensorflow-1.12.0-cp36-cp36m-linux_x86_64.whl

1, 2 and 3 above seems to be contradictory. I'd expect the following one of the behaviors:

• poetry add should deduce the package name from the wheel; or
• poetry add should allow to add the package with the different name, that is passed as the parameter

I'm pretty sure it is valid with any wheel, I just used the one from https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/releases

Thanks.

Just wanted to confirm I am also having this issue trying to install several different wheels (Shapely, Fiona, GDAL).
