Automation support

[yvlcmb]

I would like to use prosegrinder in a version control system for managing prose, perhaps in a git hook or a GitHub Action so that it runs automatically on each new commit. To make this happen, perhaps prosegrinder needs some command line usage support or some other top level module that can be executable from the command line.

Adding a few thoughts on what needs to happen:

• create cli for prosegrinder (separate repo + package + docker image) cli is part of the package
• create REST API for prosegrinder (separate repo + docker image)
• create GitHub Action for either cli or API or both

@slingload - if you have time, can you test out the cli branch? Let me know if it's along the lines of what you were thinking. I kept the output to a minimum.

Thanks David it looks great, this is just what I was hoping for:

I appreciate you adding this in and extra kudos for the quick turn around.

@slingload - heads up. I'll be putting out a new version later this morning and the cli output will be altered a little to be like this:
