Support pipes and/or text input. Usage:

echo "say whats for dinner in japanese" | cargo run --bin goose -- run

cargo run --bin goose -- run -t "say hello in japanese"

let mut stdin = String::new();
io::stdin()

nit: this works great when used in a pipe, but if someone does not use a pipe, pass --text or pass --instructions, then it sites there reading input until you hit CTRL-D or CTRL-C which is confusing.

Is there a way to detect not piping and error maybe?

This is also how old goose worked in the same setting, so maybe we can skip solving this for now

it sounds easy, but i think the way to do it would be to spawn a thread and then poll the channel. I'll skip this for now.
