leap-util should show number of blocks in blocks.log

[Rossco99]

Previously the eosio-blocklog tool would show the number of blocks in a blocks.log when running a smoke-test.

This was useful for maintenance and visibility of a blocks.log contents.

The new leap-util does not show this detail when running a smoke-test and should be reintroduced.

Output in a nice easy-to-parse format is welcome.

Do you know by any chance in which version of leap eosio-blocklog showed number of blocks in smoke-test? I am looking at the older code and I can see it is being reported only when there is a disagreement between log/index

leap/programs/eosio-blocklog/main.cpp

Line 276 in e059d82

void smoke_test(bfs::path block_dir) {

I tested leap-util and when disagreement happens it shows blocks num in error as well:

It is trivial to add it to successful check as well. Any suggestions on the reporting format?

It used to be in eosio 2.0.x and leap v3.1.0

blocks.log and blocks.index agree on number of blocks

--format=json parameter to format as json is welcome, especially if generally applied to all (relevant) commands

Thank you! I'll add a separate issue to have json output available where applicable to the commands in leap-util.
