#### Enhanced sleep command with sound effects

Mimir replaces the traditional `sleep` command with an enriched audio
experience: it plays randomized, pitch-varied sleep sounds while your
terminal waits, for a set duration or indefinitely (`mimir inf`).
Arguments mirror coreutils' `sleep` (NUMBER[SUFFIX]...).
