`--dry-run` option

Use the --dry-run option to have RSpec print your suite's formatter output
without running any examples or hooks.

Scenarios

Using `--dry-run`

Given

a file named "spec/dry_run_spec.rb" with:

RSpec.configure do |c|
  c.before(:suite) { puts "before suite" }
  c.after(:suite)  { puts "after suite"  }
end

RSpec.describe "dry run" do
  before(:context) { fail }
  before(:example) { fail }

  it "fails in example" do
    fail
  end

  after(:example) { fail }
  after(:context) { fail }
end

When

I run rspec --dry-run

Then

the output should contain "1 example, 0 failures"

And

the output should not contain "before suite"

And

the output should not contain "after suite"
