Plop Versions Save

This release enables easier wrapping around the plop utility in another CLI tool. Follow the documentation for more

• Add export of run, progress spinner functions
• Add export of Liftoff type in typescript

• Fixes various typing issues
• Remove packages with stub typings
• Enables CLI tools to merge the props before and after the --. See the docs for more: https://github.com/plopjs/plop#wrapping-plop

This does not change the default behavior of Plop itself

• typescript typings have been improved
• added an optional transform function for add, addMany, and modify that allows the action output to be transformed before writing the file to disk.
• the modify action now can accept one or both of pattern and transform but fails with a useful error if neither are provided.
• adds an optional skip function for all actions. Check the README for further documentation

General Improvements

• Action status is now reported as it comes in, instead of being logged all at once after everything is complete. This is particularly nice if you have async actions.
• Adds support for comments in the actions array that are outputted to the results screen.
• Now uses ora to output action results and show spinners.
• Shortens built-in action names in the results output to a 2 character abbreviation (param available to show full action type names)
• Various bug fixes

Updated Actions

• addMany has a new verbose option that can be set to false to prevent the actions from listing all files that it adds. Instead it only reports the number of files added.
