Consider replacing JCommander with picocli for the CLI part #16

Description

@AuPath

picocli offers several improvements over JCommander:

  • Automatic documentation generation (man page, html ...).
  • Easier to unit test the CLI itself. We had some problems in the past related to this.
  • Applications built with picocli can be natively compiled with GraalVm native images. We do not strictly need this but it is interesting.

@marioscrock, what do you think?
