A helper tool to produce QR codes to be used on website and elsewhere

[yarikoptic]

Most likely I should move this PR somewhere else, https://github.com/bids-standard/artworks ? , but it was partially inspired because I saw bit.ly watermarked QR codes somewhere on website. Also for a poster(s) wanted to create branded QR codes... With this tool we get "smallest" but guaranteed to be readable QR code -- tool sweeps through incrementing levels of redundancy and verifies that QR becomes readable.

Example:

❯ tools/mkqrcode_bids -o /tmp/proj-bids-qr.png https://github.com/orgs/bids-standard/projects/10/views/1
++ dirname tools/mkqrcode_bids
+ tools/mkqrcode.py -i tools/../docs/assets/img/logos/BIDS_logo_black_square_in_circle.png -o /tmp/proj-bids-qr.png https://github.com/orgs/bids-standard/projects/10/views/1
2024-09-21 17:55:35,710 - INFO - Successfully decoded text: 'https://github.com/orgs/bids-standard/projects/10/views/1' encoded with compress quality M. File /tmp/proj-bids-qr.png

produces

TODOs

• probably move where more appropriate
• provide mkqrcode-requirements.txt ?
• replace qr codes here? (could still lead to bit.ly for visitors count etc)
• anything else?

may be

• add control over image size?
• I don't think we can produce svg with this backend/approach since uses PIL so raster

I would be fine having it in this repo.
