Better progress bars in Scala CLI #280

from @alexarchambault about coursier progress indication:

Right now, when starting Scala CLI on a fresh new machine, it downloads many things upfront. This results in many progress bars being displayed in the console, which looks somehow confusing, and hides the other messages.

The progress bar in coursier is quite customizable. As an example, the coursier/sbt-launcher enables a more lightweight progress bar this way.

We could use the same logger around here, or even devise a custom logger just for Scala CLI.****
