will e5017efde8 Add /addword command to add missing Wordle answers
Some real Wordle answers aren't in the bundled answers.txt list. This
adds a REPL command to append a word to answers.txt and remove it from
guesses.txt if present there, since the two lists are meant to be
disjoint.

Enter each letter followed by its result digit, e.g.:
c2r1a0n0e0
Digits mean correct/present/absent, not literal color:
2 = right letter, right spot (orange in colorblind mode)
1 = right letter, wrong spot (blue in colorblind mode)
0 = letter not in word (black in colorblind mode)
In `/practice` mode, just type the guessed word — no digits needed,
the tool knows the secret and scores it for you.
Commands:
help show this text
reset clear the solver (new puzzle, keeps wager totals)
quit exit
/practice pick a secret word and let you guess it (hard-mode enforced)
/round start a new wager round: clears solver + round total, exits practice
/price reset per-letter $ values to the default $1/$2/$3
/price <g> <y> <b> set per-letter $ values, e.g. `/price 1 2 3`
/addword <word> add a missing word to the answers list (and
remove it from the guesses-only list if present)
