make a command that leads a user through setting up their mal-secrets.json file:

  • bring user to create an API key/application (may need additional documentation)
  • allow for api key to be pasted/entered into cli
  • enter user name
  • write file to location

probably doesn't need / shouldn't have any oauth stuff involved.

Users creating their own application API key prevents my own personal API key from needing to be put anywhere other than my pc/MAL, which means that if anyone is going to abuse an API key somehow it will be their own (ex: making thousands of oauth authorization attempts or something)

there is documentation available for this in the wiki, so not a high priority
