New dependency-free CLI util for editing bencoded files

[rakshasa]

As I was working on rtorrent-docker and was in need of a proper way of changing the announce-list of torrents, looking around I found no really good options that didn't require me to include a kitchen sink.

So, below is a statically compiled go-language based CLI util for editing bencoded files.

If you have any request, PRs and other suggestions, then now is probably the time to provide them while I'm still interested in working this project.

The util is still early in development.

Only requires docker and newish bash to compile for linux or darwin.

Currently it only handles one file per execution, and requires two passes to change the info section and then calculate the info-hash.

The program is written such that it will support both custom batching of actions and parallel processing of torrents.
