[Feature]: Improve CLI output with colors and spinner #9

@Holidayrabbit

Description

@Holidayrabbit

Problem Statement

Currently, the CLI uses plain console.log for all output, making it difficult to:

  • Distinguish between different types of messages (info, success, error, warning)
  • Know when a long-running operation is in progress
  • Quickly scan the terminal output for important information

Proposed Solution

Add colored output and spinners using lightweight, well-maintained libraries:

  • picocolors - Zero-dependency, performant terminal colors (~3.5x faster than chalk)
  • ora - Elegant terminal spinner
