Add support `--octoherd-ignore-archived-repo`

[stefanbuck]

I find myself excluding archived repositories all the time in my octoherd script. This makes me thinking if Octoherd should include such an option as a first class citizen argument like --octoherd-ignore-archived-repo (open for better naming suggestions). Whether or not Octoherd should ignore archived repos by default is another discussion, one step at a time.

The CLI won't be the only runtime where Octoherd scripts will be run in future, I'd like to keep the run times slim. I agree it's kind of tedious to ignore archived repository.

I think the better place to put the option would be into the script itself. Besides exporting the script function, Octoherd script will export other things like the options they expect, and they could in some way also export that they want to filter out archived repositories?

Thanks for your feedback. I'm curious to hear if you have any specific environments in mind already. Long time ago I worked on https://github.com/yeoman/yeoman-app and therefore I was immediately thinking about a desktop app but maybe you have other ideas already.

Coming back to the actual feature request. I like your suggestion and I will look into it once my schedule is less busy

First two that come to mind are

• Deno
• Web App

I would love so much to work on a web app for Octoherd. There is so much potential there. I'm dreaming of a web editor with full TypeScript intellisense support, built-in login for both users and apps, create a script and run it right from your browser within minutes, persist it to a repository or gists if you want to, share it with your team.

Also reports is a big potential. We could do some simplistic summary-esque reporting on the CLI, but in a web UI we could show charts that change as the script progresses 😍

Sorry for getting all off topic I'm just excited for all this for a long time, just didn't find the time to work on it, yet
