Add the singular user command, analogous to the single tweet command

[SamHames]

This adds the user command, which takes a single user id. This is a direct analogue of the single tweet command, so we know have tweet/tweets and user/users.

Closes #598

[SamHames]

The design mirrors the users command, so there's a --username flag to handle that case explicitly. Not sure that's necessarily the best approach for the long term, but it's at least consistent with its sibling command. Given how common that specific use case is do you think it's worth considering another approach?

I noticed that looking up by username doesn't work?

$ twarc2 user jack
⚡ The `ids` query parameter value [jack] is not valid

Maybe that should be fixed or it shouldn't advertise that it can lookup by username?

[igorbrigadir]

yes, would be nice to have twarc2 user jack work - - very useful for arbitrarily pulling out a user ID on the go!

[SamHames]

I added the name/id disambiguation as part of the command to make it clear, as well as updating the docstrings to better align with that.

Get the profile data for a single user by either username or ID.

To look up a user by ID:

    twarc2 user id 12

To look up a user by username:

    twarc2 user name jack

I really like this "name-or-id" approach, and the command examples in the docs!

[edsu]

I like it too! It could be useful for some other commands liketimeline.

I think this is good to go!
