TUI to browse and restore from restic repositories

Hi!

I just wanted to advertise the new TUI (text user interface) to browse and restore from a repository which is in fact part of rustic 0.8.0 and can be started by running rustic snapshots -i.

Some impressions:

Snapshots view:

From this snapshots view, you can also do modifications on selected snapshots like forgetting them or modifying tags.

Tree view:

From this tree view, you can start a restore to restore sub-trees or files.

Note that this TUI is in an early development, feedback is very welcome!

Also note that it completely depends on the rustic ecosystem - no restic is needed or used (also rustic has to be blamed for all bugs :wink: ).
