feature request: render frame range from command-line #14

I'd like the ability to run mandelbulb3d from the commandline, passing an m3a file and a frame range, and potentially also an output directory.

The use-case I have in mind is for setting up a build farm where multiple machines are used to render an animation simultaneously. Today, my work-flow involves copying the m3a file to each machine, loading up the mb3d GUI on that machine, and specifying the frame ranges to render. I keep track of which machines are rendering which ranges in a txt file. If I could script all of that, it would save me quite a bit of effort.

I think this would make sense. Whenever I will find time I will add it
