Databricks Labs CLI that templated and deployed jobs via the Jobs API.

• A Databricks Labs side project - the name is short for 'Databricks CLI eXtensions' - that templated and deployed jobs to the Jobs API straight from your terminal. 🔗
• Its config lived in a .dbx/project.json file, a different format entirely, which is why moving off it is a migration rather than a flip of a switch. 🔗
