minishift: Minishift cannot delete or stop VM after it's started with invalid values for ram, cpu
Environment minishift: v1.0.0-beta.2 OS: Fedora 24 provider: kvm
About
This is more a feature request than a bug I think. When minishift is used to start with invalid values (e.g. minishift start --memory 0) and fails to do so, then it is unable to recover itself from this state with minishift delete command. Deleting ~/.minishift folder helps to overcome this issue.

We should have some minimum value for RAM, CPUs, memory and validate against it with valid input provided.
