Add metadata cli tool UX

Ideas about "MVP" behavior:

  • Try to parse a metadata object that's stored in a file (output is probably "list with hash XXX OK/err")
  • Try to parse a metadata object that can be located with a URL (output is probably "list with hash XXX OK/err")
  • Download a metadata object that can be located with a URL (output is the metadata object if its signature is valid and the content can be parsed).
    • Would be nice if it is possible to specify, e.g, "source google" and the tool knows those params
    • Probably want to be able to specify urls + pubkey as well

Only output to stdout to keep it simple.

The above should be useful for: linting and authenticated downloads of the list (e.g., by piping to a file).

TODO@later:

  • Store metdata object + sig to file
  • Check that the downloaded metadata object is consistent with a stored metadata object
