New file with docstings saved at : `test_docstrings.py`

When all docstrings are added, skip all functions

$ python3 docstring_generator_auto.py test.py

Do you want to write docstring for `hello1` ? (y/n)  n

Function `hello2`
Params ['a:tuple']
Do you want to write docstring for `hello2` ? (y/n)  n

Function `hello3` has no parameters
Do you want to write docstring for `hello3` ? (y/n)  n
