Rename Append to Merge, replace strings_Join with slice_Join, and auto-detect non-TTY output

- Rename Append to Merge on Cookies, Headers, and Params types and simplify Parse to use direct append
- Replace strings_Join(sep, ...values) with slice_Join(slice, sep) for consistency with slice-based template functions
- Auto-enable quiet mode when stdout is not a terminal
- Remove ErrCLINoArgs check to allow running sarin without arguments
- Add -it flag to Docker examples in docs
