FetchCode: a smart code downloader

FetchCode is a smart tool/library that provides a universal package and code download from VCS, web, ftp, etc.

This project includes:

1. Release on Pypi
2. Add support for fetching code with fetchcode in a pipeline (https://github.com/nexB/scancode.io/issues/35)
3. Add support for Docker images download by moving the code from https://github.com/nexB/container-inspector/tree/develop/src/container_inspector/fetch ... or create some simple plugin architecture similar to that of scancode-toolkit such that there could be plugins for various "fetchers"
4. Add support for more API data fetching including package indexes.
