[Feature request] Add --version flag

[twpayne]

It would be fantastic if rbw had a --version flag so that users can check what features are available.

Background:

rbw recently added support for raw JSON output in #97, and tagged version 1.6.0, which enabled chezmoi to support rbw as an interface to Bitwarden in #2836. Right now, chezmoi has no way of checking whether the rbw binary installed on the user's machine supports raw JSON output or not.

It would be great if the rbw binary could report its version.

Hmmm... this is strange - it did have it in version 1.4.3:

Ah, thanks for the tip. Some hasty use of git bisect indicates that commit 52efb7f9c09ea25136b0c2bc4c63455908ccf3bb is the one that removed the --version flag.

[doy]

ah, yeah, removing this was unintentional - i'll restore it in a bit
