When we merged the changes in libimagrt so that it automatically detects
whether stdin/stdout is a TTY and provides the user with stderr in case
stdout is not a TTY, we forgot that things like
imag foo | grep bar
becomes impossible with that, because imag detects that stdout is not a
tty and automatically uses stderr for output.
But in this case, we don't want that. The output has to be stdout in
this case.
With this change, we have a flag in the runtime ("--pipe-magic" or "-P",
globally available) which turns on "pipe magic".
The expected behaviour is the following, if "-P" is passed:
* If stdout is a TTY, we print to stdout
* If stdout is not a TTY, we print to stderr
* If stdin is not a TTY, we do not provide it
If "-P" is not passed, we allow the user of libimagrt to use stdin for
interactive stuff (the interactive stuff is not yet implemented).

libimagrt
This library provides utility functionality for the modules and the binary frontends, such as reading and parsing the configuration file, a builder helper for the commandline interface and such.
It also contains the store object and creates it from configuration.
the libimagrt::runtime::Runtime object is the first complex object that comes
to live in a imag binary.
Long-term TODO
- Merge with
libimagstore
