Nicer output of errors (sort by filename, be less verbose)

[pixelbrackets]

(Feature Request, nice tool btw)

It would be nice if the tool could group the errors to enhance readability if a lot of errors occur. For example like in the log of the popular »php-cs-fixer«.

Bonus: Be less verbose. Only show detailed errors if a verbose flag was given.

Example:

$> editorconfig-checker ./*
........F....F.F...

1) acme/file.txt (amount of spaces, trailing whitespace)
2) acme/foo.php (indentation type)
3) acme/kermit.txt (indentation type)

19 files checked, 167 errors occured
Check log above and fix the issues.

And more verbose:

$> editorconfig-checker -v ./*
........F....F.F...

1) acme/file.txt (amount of spaces, trailing whitespace)
   Amount of spaces on line 256
   Amount of spaces on line 257
   Trailing whitespace on line 257
   Amount of spaces on line 258
2) acme/foo.php (indentation type)
   Indentation types on line 1
   Indentation types on line 2
   Indentation types on line 3
   Indentation types on line 4
3) acme/kermit.txt (indentation type)
   Indentation types on line 4
   Indentation types on line 8
   Indentation types on line 15
   Indentation types on line 16
   Indentation types on line 23
   Indentation types on line 42

19 files checked, 167 errors occured

Thanks for you feedback I really appreciate it. In fact I had considered a general verbose flag too, so I would think you will get this feature soon.
