feat(explain): add workspaces support

- Add highlight style for workspaces items in human output
- Add ability to filter results by workspace using `-w` config
- Added tests and docs

Fixes: npm/statusboard#300

+#### `workspace`
+
+* Default:
+* Type: String (can be set multiple times)
+
+Enable running a command in the context of the configured workspaces of the
+current project while filtering by running only the workspaces defined by
+this configuration option.
+
+Valid values for the `workspace` config are either:
+
+* Workspace names
+* Path to a workspace directory
+* Path to a parent workspace directory (will result to selecting all of the
+  nested workspaces)
+
+When set for the `npm init` command, this may be set to the folder of a
+workspace which does not yet exist, to create the folder and set it up as a
+brand new workspace within the project.
+
+This value is not exported to the environment for child processes.
