Description

Acceptance criteria

As a CLI user
I want to provide --required-severity flag specifying the 
    minimum required violation severity level (MUST, SHOULD, MAY)
So the CLI tool will return non-zero exit code when
    there are violations with specified severity

Contributor guide

Research direction
Understand the CLI argument parsing mechanism in the codebase, locate where severities are handled, and modify the exit code logic based on the new flag.
