Bånderapp:artist:create
Create an artist that no scan found, such as a featured performer to credit by hand. The command does what POST /api/artists/ does in the admin API, through the same use case.
Quick start
make exec cmd="php bin/console app:artist:create 'The Beatles' --country=GB --type=group --sort-name='Beatles, The'"

Details
The command does not check for an existing artist with the same name; creating the same name twice creates two artists.
The command prints the new artist's public ID, which app:artist:update takes. With --json it prints only the new artist as the API's data object, with uuid, publicId, name, country, type, disambiguation, sortName and createdAt. The API answers 201 with the same object.
Exit codes
| Code | Meaning |

| 2 | The name is empty |
