Adds a CLI product for gt (https://gitea.com/gitea/cli), set up like the runner, with short guides for installation, logging in, CI and scripting. Each command's details stay in gt <command> --help. Until the first release, the docs are served at /cli/; make cut-version PRODUCT=cli VERSION=0.1 adds the release series.

Closes https://gitea.com/gitea/cli/issues/16

# Installation
gt is a single binary for Linux, macOS, Windows and FreeBSD.
## Install script
The install script downloads gt from [dl.gitea.com](https://dl.gitea.com/gitea-cli/),
verifies its checksum and installs it.
```bash
# Linux, macOS, FreeBSD
curl -fsSL https://gitea.com/gitea/cli/raw/branch/main/scripts/install.sh | sh
```
```powershell
# Windows
irm https://gitea.com/gitea/cli/raw/branch/main/scripts/install.ps1 | iex
```
Set `GITEA_CLI_VERSION` to install a specific version, or `nightly` for the latest build
of `main`.
## Other ways
- **Binaries:** download them from [dl.gitea.com/gitea-cli](https://dl.gitea.com/gitea-cli/).
- **Docker:** the [`gitea/gitea-cli`](https://hub.docker.com/r/gitea/gitea-cli) image runs
`gt` as its entry point.
- **Go:** `go install gitea.dev/cli/cmd/gt@latest`
## Shell completion and man pages
`gt completion <shell>` prints the completion script for bash, zsh, fish or PowerShell;
`gt completion <shell> --help` shows how to load it. `gt man` prints the manual.
