Subject: [PATCH] Added flags for quiet and as-json output. (#26)

--as-json outputs the response as json, this allows you to use tools
like jq on the output which is nice.

--quiet makes it so no output is printed. I added this in case you are
looping Beau and don't want to see the output of every single request.
Example: `seq 10 | xargs -I{} beau request hi --quiet`.
