I run Bandit in CI for a few repos now, and it's been both useful when finding potential issues (and one actual problem - thanks!) and annoyingly verbose when everything is OK. I just don't want contributors to have to scroll through 27 lines of output when silence would be fine and the failure is coming from some other tool.

So in the Unix tradition of "silence is golden", I would love a --quiet and a --silent option to take output away, just as the existing --verbose and --debug options add more.

Add option -q, --quiet, --silent to hide output
7c4b9fa 
This commit adds a new command line argument to hide output
when the result of the scan is passing with no warning/errors.

The new option is -q or --quiet. It also allows --silent to be
consistent with the GNU standard on CLI options [1].

Can I be cheeky and ask is there an ETA on the next pypi release including this? Many thanks
