Provide "catchy" examples of use of dandi-cli in CLI within README.md #1195

Description

@yarikoptic

An idea came up within the scope #1193 (comment) by @waxlamp and @melster1010 and IMHO warrants "separate thinking" thus filing a new issue here.

The problem with "more detailed" examples is that they might get outdated even faster than output of --help so it might be important to have them scripted/tested. Here is a few approaches we used/I am aware of

So I decided to try and running

SCREENCAST_HOME=/tmp/demo ./cast2asciinema ../datalad-maint/docs/casts/seamless_nested_repos.sh output.cast

gave me this cast: https://asciinema.org/a/cWrxRnQJlyQNLHg836qAwRbqA (I believe there was some way to turn them also into gifs)

So, if someone were to do some "catchy" interactive demos

smth like that.
