Add the posibility to freeze/pack apps from the terminal (like pyinstaller does: pyinstaller main.py)

See original GitHub issue

Pyinstaller, pip and many more modules have .exe files in the Scripts folder.

When called from the terminal they can accept arguments and do stuff (ex: pip install module)

It would be nicer if pyvan can have something like this pyvan main.py and this pyvan --no-console main.py instead of creating a setup file then run it.

@ClimenteA the icon to exe is more tricky, but I found the following which you might be able to exploit, i.e. using shortcuts you can set icons: https://pbpython.com/windows-shortcut.html. I am working on one more PR feature for pyvan that I really need for my project, after I finish and I have some time left I might have some time to create a CLI for pyvan.

@ClimenteA Ok the PR is was working on is done see #18, it was a bit more involved than I originally anticipated. But I think overall it would be a great improvement for pyvan.
