Kooha Feature Request: CLI Support

Feature summary Command Line commands to do kooha actions in the terminal, useful to ship scripts with kooha. This also could be useful for the user to input their own custom shortcut to automatically start or stop recording with kooha.

How would you like it to work CLI usage like start recording, stopping it & etc.. ex: kooha stop to stop recording

CLI args to target screens would be dandy... by title, ID, whatever it takes =) kooha -r(ecord) -s 1(ID) or -t "My Game" (title) idk. Monitor area could work too... kooha -r -x 0 -y 0 -w 1920 -h 1080 perharps -s(creen) 1 or even -w(orkspace) 2|"main"

best regards.

Kooha and OBS are the only applications in the entire internet that know how to record in Wayland and pipewire Would be viable to have a CLI or it is technically impossible due to wayland limitations?

having a CLI would be great, even if it has limited options.
