request: Support running in Jaspr projects #421

Description
Jaspr is a popular Dart web framework and recommended by the Flutter team for building websites in Dart. It has the special feature to use Flutter plugins (like the firebase plugins) while not directly requiring a flutter project. However, users of Jaspr cannot currently use flutterfire_cli because every command executed in a Jaspr project fails with:
FlutterAppRequiredException: The current directory does not appear to be a Flutter application project.
It would be great to enable users of Jaspr to use the cli as well and not need to do workarounds or manually setup the plugins. I propose one of two possible solutions:
- Detect Jaspr directly and skip this exception.
- Pro: Seamless experience for Jaspr users.
- Con: Jaspr-specific logic inside the cli, which I can understand if this is not desired.
- CLI flag to disable the flutter check.
- Pro: Independent of Jaspr, can be used in any Dart project
- Con: Needs to be set on every run.
Reasoning
This would make the firebase plugins a lot easier to use for Jaspr users.
