Provide additional author with parameter

Context

Although the commit created by gitopscli is usually done by CI with a technical user, the actual deployment is often triggered by a user (click in the CI gui or a commit in the application repository). It could be beneficial for the history to add this user as additional author to the deployment commit.

Solution Proposal

The deploy command would get two additional parameters for co-authors:

gitopscli deploy --git-provider github \
                          --username gitopscli \
                          --git-user CI-User \
                          --git-email ci@baloise.dev \
                          --co-author-name 'Mike Miller' \
                          --co-author-email mike@baloise.dev

The co-author values would be added to all commit messages created by gitopscli

Do you mean a co-author trailer at the end of the commit message? (https://github.blog/2018-01-29-commit-together-with-co-authors/)

Example:

changed 'backend.tag' to 'foo' in values.yaml

Co-authored-by: Mike Miller <mike@baloise.dev>

Yes exactly. Github, Bitbucket and others use this as well.

I first thought to use the --commit-message argument but that feels wrong. Side effect on single / multiple commits and you would loose the default commit message.
