Bug Description

When I run doc8 and there are no violations, I see this:

```
$ doc8 doc CHANGES.rst README.rst
Scanning...
Validating...
========
Total files scanned = 23
Total files ignored = 0
Total accumulated errors = 0
Detailed error counts:
    - doc8.checks.CheckCarriageReturn = 0
    - doc8.checks.CheckIndentationNoTab = 0
    - doc8.checks.CheckMaxLineLength = 0
    - doc8.checks.CheckNewlineEndOfFile = 0
    - doc8.checks.CheckTrailingWhitespace = 0
    - doc8.checks.CheckValidity = 0
```

I don't need to see any of those lines. I'd like a -q option to silence them.

BTW, I'm interested in contributing this change. Following the links and reading the docs, it seems like I have to join OpenStack as a Foundation member in order to contribute code, and that means I have to vote regularly, or I lose my membership? Why do people have to vote in order to contribute code? Or am I misreading this?

The change is here: https://github.com/nedbat/doc8/commit/584f9add980bdc88b44a5e1b784a85a0d23889f9
