Generate a Just file for running some common release tasks when generating projects using inko init #1002

Description

Just is a task runner similar to Make, but focused more on just running simple tasks and not being a full build system. Right now for a bunch of projects I have a Makefile like so for some common release tasks.

While Make works it's generally rather clumsy to use and at least for my libraries I've been meaning to move away from it for some time now. Note that for Inko itself we'll continue to use it as we also expose it for package managers so they can just run make install if they want to.

I'm going to use Just for https://github.com/yorickpeterse/inko-sqlite and see if I like it enough to also adopt it for inko init so library authors don't need to copy-paste the same code for each new project.
