:open-output

[tobyfrancis]

Allowing shell outputs to pass filepaths to Helix's :output would open the door (pun intended) for shell scripts to trigger Helix to open a file (my primary use-case is opening the first file that fails to compile or fails a test in large projects, as this can be tedious to find). I'm not sure if this is already possible, I may just be ignorant here. The only way I see this possible currently is quite a bit of tmux/zellij magic that could be drastically simplified with such a built-in command.

Intended usage:
:open-output my_script_of_choice_which_writes_filepath_to_stdout

Thank you so much for this wonderful project that has helped tremendously in my software engineering career!
