CI check to verify required exercises files exist. (#458)

* Bash script to check for required exercise files

Checks to see that all exercises have both a `description.md` and a
`metadata.yml` file.

Note this only checks for existence and does not validate the contents
in any way.

If there are required files missing the return value will be 1 and
the CI check will fail.

If --progress command line option is provided, progress will be
displayed by outputing a `.` to STDOUT for each directory checked and a completion message will also be displayed.
