D12044: baloodb: Improve interface

[Michael Heidelbach]

  This is the last patch, before I let baloodb rest for some time.
  
  This is the first time I've created a cli-tool + class completely from scratch. So there a tendency to become routine-blinded ("betriebsblind"). Therefore  I'd like to ask you to check for
  
  - overall consistency
  - proper wording
  - expressiveness of names: commands, command options, functions, variables.
  - usefulness of coloring
  
  command options:
  
  - `-D` is fixed
  - `-d` is forbidden to avoid confusion
  - `-o` is reserved for maybe `--output`
  
  Everything else is completely changeable.
  I'm looking forward to your comments and suggestions.
  
  To see this at work you can ruin your database as described in T7860 <https://phabricator.kde.org/T7860> or do
  
    $ md /tmp/otto
  
  Copy some files into `/tmp/otto`
  
    $ balooctl index /tmp/otto/*
    $ balooctl stop
    $ rm /tmp/otto/*
  
  `baloodb` works without the indexer running.
