Description

I would like to add something minimal like this as an option to yakut file-server.

Reason being is that as part of the presentation at DroneX, I would like to show how easy it is to update the firmware on one of our Cyphal-enabled devices (FluxGrip). However, the currently available --verbose option just prints out the a bunch of unintelligible gobbledygook.

Research direction

Start by locating the yakut file-server CLI entry point and how its existing --verbose option reports transfers. Review the referenced progressbar2 project and the attached example, then define --progress so firmware updates show readable progress; done means the option works without the verbose output.
