New "Build" Command Needed in CLI about ansible-builder HOT 4 CLOSED

Some more notes:

• ONLY for the build command, we need a -t --tag flag (this names the container)
• After create gets called, there should be a path for the build context
• The build command needs to call docker build -f Containerfile .
• Need a --container-runtime flag in order to specify either Docker or Podman builds (defaulting to Podman)
• Implement a unit test that asserts that command contains certain elements, whether or not we override things like the build context path or the tag (from #16 (comment))

from ansible-builder.

• A visual "spinner" and/or stdout print in real-time would be nice while container is being built, etc.

Better Documentation:

• Need to have a paragraph come up when running ansible-builder -h that explains what Builder is/does
• Need to update the docstrings for the create and build commands to be more specific/helpful for the user

from ansible-builder.

Can we combine or close some of these, and just say "document and test the basic feature set"? @kdelee

I've tried out these commands and I think we can close this and yes, we need to write up a set of basic test cases we want to implement but that does not have to block closing this issue.
