Dynamically updated output with run #229

Description

@hongooi73

It would be nice if run had better support for programs that continually update the screen. Taking the example of docker again:

  • system2("docker", "pull <foo>") prints the status updates to the screen as they occur, with progress bars that update properly. It mimics what you'd see if you ran docker from the commandline.
  • processx::run("docker", c("pull", "<foo>"), echo=TRUE) doesn't show the progress bars at all, and only shows the updated status as each layer operation completes.
