This release updates the library's dependencies including updating certifi to the lastest version to address CVE-2022-23491

This release adds a new command attribute, background, which is False by default but can be set to True if the command should be run in the background automatically. This can be useful when combined with the atstart attribute to allow for the application to run some long running async method in the background and the interactive repl in the foreground. For instance, perhaps the application is some game server for which you want to implement a set of admin or diagnostic commands. The main loops controlling connections and game flow can happen in a function like this:

@recline.command(atstart=True, background=True)
async def main_loop():
    ...

and then the rest of the REPL can still be dedicated to running commands in the foreground.

This release updates the package dependency versions including updates to urllib3 to address recent CVEs. The minimum version of Python has also been increased to 3.6+ and f-strings are now used in the source code.

Thanks to the issue request, #4, Windows compatibility is here. The only caveat found so far is that once an async command is started, it cannot be backgrounded when running on Windows. This is due to the platform not implementing the SIGTSTP signal (or a good alternative). You can still run commands in the background, but you must launch them with -background in the first place.

This is the inaugural release of the recline Python library. See the README.md file for more details about what it is and how it works.
