Use tokei instead of cloc in editorialbot #1450

Description

@DanNixon

Currently editorialbot gives a summary of lines of code using cloc, this is helpful, however tokei provides a little more information by showing languages within other files.

This can be a helpful proxy metric of things a reviewer may care about, the two examples I have used in the past:

  • the amount of Markdown in Rust source code is an indicator of how extensively the code is documented
  • the amount of any programming language in Markdown documents is an indicator of usage examples in the documentation
