Scan axis start, stop, step list[detectors] as a syntactic sugar over a call

[stan-dot]

idea - allow for quickscans with known syntax used now in the ipython environment

This is a CLI thin wrapper with logic around a call to some step plan

prerequsites

• setup some motor as the default for the beamline (allow to override)
• read in the start, stop, steps as parameters to a blueapi client call
• read in detectors list as dynamically created list of devices to listen in

Discussed with @joeshannon .

sample syntax: scan [axis] [start, stop, steps] [detector names]

@coretl where did the discussion on this end up?

I can't remember a discussion on this... Gareth definitely had opinions though
