Support formatters which don't accept input from stdin #18

Some formatters like isort need a file as input and change the file in place . An additional argument like :file t could result in creating a temp file and pass that to :program and use the changed temp file as new buffer content.

No, that can definitely work on stdin and stdout. Look at the existing blacken-mode code: https://github.com/pythonic-emacs/blacken/blob/5f30f17b048af1fe73ba710781650e3490a7be49/blacken.el#L82-L104

That sounds quite nice. Will try to get get to something like that soon.
