Improve CLI for batch scripts

[nmarchio]

https://github.com/mansueto-institute/kblock/tree/main/kblock

Place all functions into a python module file.
Explore whether converting batch_*.py scripts to CLIs using click (instead of argparse) makes sense
Standardize the arguments for the CLIs
Generalize tests to confirm all countries in input list have associated files
Add argument to skip countries with output files that already exist
Lint everything consistently (pep8)

Just curious: why forcing use of click instead of the native argparse?

[nmarchio]

After I do this final deployment and code refactor involving some significant feature enhancements and bug fixes, I'm hoping to package everything up and as part of that effort it might be a good time to shift over to click. Argparse works well for now. The main issue if we open this to a broader community of users, click can make the CLI a bit more user friendly.

We can discuss of course, right now its more of a nice to have.

I am not sure I understand how click can make the CLI more user friendly relative to argparse, or what user friendliness means in the context of a CLI.

On the developer side, argparse is the common standard (by fact of being a built-in) so it's more often used.

Cool make some edits to the issue to be less comittal around click
