Enable users to use CLI without installing NodeJS

[derberg]

Reason/Context

AsyncAPI CLI is supposed to be a tool that exposes all asyncapi tools to the community and makes it easier for the community to work with AsyncAPI files. This means it must be easy to access for folks that are not NodeJS fans and we should not force users to install NodeJS.

Description

Brew for MacOS

Get us in brew and then automate release of upgrades. I already opened a PR Homebrew/homebrew-core#92115 and will drive it forward and then come up with GH workflow to automate release (upgrade PR) of new versions.

Executable for Linux, Mac and Windows

Start using https://github.com/vercel/pkg and enrich our release pipeline (super easy with semantic-releases, I can help) to produce an executable for the CLI + have quick instructions how one can download it and use it

Chocolatey for Windows

Get us in chocolatey and then automate release of upgrades. We need windows users that can lead it.

You already mentioned this idea in our conversation one time. I think it's great. Go ahead! :)

We are almost there on brew, just need to increase some numbers on starts, forks and watchers here on the repo. But formula is ready -> Homebrew/homebrew-core#92115 (comment) and once it is there I will provide CI automation to regularly update it with latest.

Anybody knows anyone with Windows that could handle the same for chocolatey?
