stdout communicator

[GijsTimmers]

Maybe some people want to use kotnetcli in quirky ways. We can help those people by providing a stdout communicator for kotnetcli.

It seems to me that what we really want here is an easy-to-parse and stable output format to allow easy scripting (as opposed to the PlainTextCommunicator).

Inspired by git internals terminology, I therefore propose to offer a PlumbingCommunicator with a stable dictionary-like output format.

Maybe a successful login output stream could look like:

status=connection_test
status=open_connection
status=waiting_reply
status=succes
upload=value
download=value
