Include --start interval and other options in --status command

[DomT4]

I'd need to store the options invoked initially somewhere and then read those options back, but I agree this would be a handy feature. I've been meaning to give users a way of seeing when they invoked the command as well, as sometimes changes/etc require a fresh command to roll out. An updated print out like:

~> brew autoupdate --status                                                                              [~]
Autoupdate is installed and running.

Autoupdate is scheduled to update every 43200 seconds.
Autoupdate was last invoked on 01/01/20 with the options:
  --start --enable-notifications

Would probably be alright. I'll look into it. Thanks for the issue, and I'm glad you're finding this project useful! 😺

You are already storing all the information you need in the .plist and the homebrew_autoupdate files.
I will try to parse the content from these files in the status class, so we can to output the requested information when the command is invoked.

I've already implemented --immediate and interval on my fork: https://github.com/swissbuechi/homebrew-autoupdate/tree/enhance-output-of-status-command

I will try to finish all other options and then create a pull request.
