Adrian Duke 0684d1ccdf cli: Changed the default scope from all to followed for clone and seed
The previous implementation used 'all' as the default for scope, this
could lead to surprising behaviour where a user would fetch all
references for cloned and seeded repositories. Instead have a progressive,
safe by default value - where it fetches only 'followed' references. Later
a user can decide to set the scope to 'all'. NOTE: the default policy
scope was not changed from 'all' and is intended to be changed at a
later date.

When you try to clone or sync without your node running, it gives you an error:

$ rad clone rad:z3gqcJUoA1n9HaHKufZs5FCSGazv5
✗ Error: to clone a repository, your node must be running. To start it, run `rad node start`
$ rad sync --fetch rad:z3gqcJUoA1n9HaHKufZs5FCSGazv5 --seed z6MksmpU5b1dS7oaqF2bHXhQi1DWy2hB7Mh9CuN7y1DN6QSz
✗ Error: to sync a repository, your node must be running. To start it, run `rad node start`

Note that seeding works fine without a running node:

$ rad seed rad:z3gqcJUoA1n9HaHKufZs5FCSGazv5
✓ Seeding policy updated for rad:z3gqcJUoA1n9HaHKufZs5FCSGazv5 with scope 'followed'
