The metadata can be accessed with this function. The primary goal is to use things like the creation time. It should support several format options.
The Ramhorns template engine should be optionally applied before the RegEx replace by using a new --metadata flag.
An alternative could be to inject the metadata into the RegEx replacer.

This feature has to be implemented!

There is a potential issue in renaming directories and files in them. Therefore directories should be disabled by default to prevent this kind of race condition (there is no undefined behaviour, it will error out) until an efficient method to work with this is found.

On -vv it should give stats about the total renamed things and folders, files, symlinks and errors but only if greater 0.

There should be other modes which don't use regex rules, but predefined naming conventions like camelCase, snake_case, kebab-case. there are crates heck and Inflector which can do the heavy lifting.
Therefore a trait Replace should be created to handle the different Replacement-Engines.
#7 would work great with this idea.
Maybe it would even be possible to concatenate different replacers to a pipe.

There are crates which can do directory traversal asynchronously. There is async-walkdir and async-walk but the second one won't probably work with async-std.
