Description
The idea for this convenience feature is taken from tmux: it'd be nice to be able to simply shpool attach (or better yet, shpool a) when there's 1+ unattached sessions and have shpool just pick one to attach to automatically.

Research direction
Start at the CLI entry point for shpool attach and inspect how existing sessions are listed and selected. Implement the no-argument behavior, including the shorter shpool a form, so it chooses the most recent unattached session when one or more exist. Done means both invocation forms attach to the selected session without requiring a session name.
