Feature request - Add ability to "skip" adding all columns to models #61

The default feature of adding all columns to models is great but it can generate a huge diff in the YML files.

I think it would be useful to provide an option where documented columns are "pushed down" to downstream models but where non-documented columns are not added. I see it as a potentially first step in getting better docs without being to overwhelming..

This is added in latest release via a flag called --skip-add-columns Version 0.11.19 https://github.com/z3z1ma/dbt-osmosis/releases/tag/v0.11.19
