Communicate progress of getting/downloading operations ⏳

[arthur-shaw]

Objective

Communicate progress to the end user for long-running processes.

Two canonical examples:

• Downloading data
• Getting data in chunks

Tasks

Research

• Research progress tools (e.g., progressr)
• Research console communication tools (e.g., cli, ui_* functions in usethis)

Refactor

• For download functions, provide % downloaded
• For getting functions, provide % of all records gotten

Related issues

• Progress indicator for get_interviews #15

This would be useful in a few areas:

• Shiny apps that report % progress to users
• Console updates

This is priority due to the number of projects that would benefit from this.
