Description
### Add remote upstream repository to the forked projects after cloning
Could be possible to add the upstream original repository for the forked repositories?
Every time I fork a project on Github I have to manually execute the following command:
```shell
git remote add upstream GIT_UPSTREAM_URL
```
This way I can keep the fork synchronized with the original repo.
I think it could be possible to add an option:
```shell
ghcloneall --include-forks --set-upstream
```
What do you think about it?

Research direction
The issue names no files or tests. Start by locating ghcloneall's command-line option handling and the flow used to clone forked repositories; done means --set-upstream adds the original GitHub repository as upstream when --include-forks is used.
