--strip-tags option

[simonw]

I ran this against columns containing HTML and got results like this:

Add an option to --strip-tags before sending text to the API. It can use a simple regular expression.

tag_re = re.compile("<.*?>")
def strip_tags(s):
    return tag_re.sub("", s)

Or I might borrow strip_tags() from Django, since it's better tested against more cases:
