Created files

The command creates the following files:

• cecil.yml: the configuration, with commented examples of common options
• pages/index.md: the home page
• assets/favicon.png and assets/icon.png: the favicon and the default image of social networks cards
• static/favicon.ico: the legacy favicon
• README.md and .gitignore (_site/, .cache/ and .cecil/), if they don't already exist
• .github/workflows/build-and-deploy.yml: a GitHub Actions workflow to deploy on GitHub Pages, if requested

With the --demo option, it also adds demo content: a blog (with tags, pagination, a draft and a French translation), a documentation section (sorted by weight, with a table of contents enabled by cascade), custom templates, a Sass stylesheet, a data file and translations.
