Description
I have installed howdy from source on debian trixie.
and now im making a ssh interface to home assistant.
for a notification when a false login was detected with image.
and a switch for turning howdy on and off.
for this i need the current state of howdy which is lacking.
please add a state option to the howdy command to see if howdy is enabled or disabled.
for now we can use `grep -i "disabled" /usr/local/etc/howdy/config.ini | awk -F' = ' '{print "Howdy is " ($2 == "false" ? "enabled" : "disabled")}'`

Research direction
Start by locating the howdy command implementation and how it reads /usr/local/etc/howdy/config.ini. Add a state option that reports whether Howdy is enabled or disabled, matching the configuration value; verify it against both settings.
