dac: A CLI Helper Tool for Data as Code

Data as Code (DaC) is a paradigm of distributing versioned data as code.

dac is a tool that supports the Producer.

IMPORTANT: Currently the project is in the initial development phase, this is why releases are marked as 0.z.y. (following semantic versioning 2.0.0: "Major version zero (0.y.z) is for initial development. Anything MAY change at any time. The public API SHOULD NOT be considered stable."). While in this phase, we will denote breaking changes with a minor increase.
