Keyword arguments in commands

[jimmycuadra]

For more complex commands, it would be useful to be able to include keyword arguments as part of the message so that order doesn't matter and parts of the commands can be optional.

For example, a message like this:

Lita: foo bar=baz this_key="has a quote-delimited value"

Could have its keyword arguments accessed by a handler:

message.keyword_args[:bar] # "baz"
message.keyword_args[:this_key] # "has a quote-delimited value"

It might also be worth supporting different characters in place of the =, since there is precedent for this, for example in lita-datadog, which uses a : and requires that the values be quoted. /cc @esigler
