🐙 GitHub Mode

When you run python3 tool.py without arguments, you get a launch menu with a GitHub repository option. Accepts any URL format:

https://github.com/owner/repo
https://github.com/owner/repo/tree/develop
https://github.com/owner/repo/tree/feature/my-branch
git@github.com:owner/repo.git
owner/repo

The tool will:

1. Clone the repo (depth 1 for speed), with ZIP fallback
2. Scan for all .md / .markdown files (skipping node_modules, .git, etc.)
3. Present an interactive picker (README.md always listed first)
4. Process the chosen file — or all files at once
5. Cache the clone and offer to reuse it on repeat runs

Output is written to:

md_toolkit_output/
  github_output/
    owner_repo/
      README/
        code/
        tables/
        README.html
        README.pdf
