Command-line interface for Bengal SSG.

Alias System:

Bengal supports intuitive command aliases for faster workflows:

Top-level shortcuts (most common operations):
    bengal build     → bengal site build
    bengal serve     → bengal site serve
    bengal dev       → bengal site serve (alias)
    bengal clean     → bengal site clean
    bengal check     → bengal validate

Short aliases (single letter for power users):
    bengal b         → bengal build
    bengal s         → bengal serve
    bengal c         → bengal clean
    bengal v         → bengal validate

All original nested commands still work for discoverability.
