I often run adaptive in a terminal, and to me it seems very useful to print a status update or something so I can see how many points I already have and what the current loss is.

I would suggest:

• for the simple runner, just print a message with info every N'th point (where the user can specify N)
• for the BlockingRunner and AsyncRunner, print a message every delta_t seconds (similar to liveinfo in jupyter)

Maybe use tqdm.

I just had a need for this as well, see what I made here https://github.com/basnijholt/adaptive-scheduler/commit/cbf404397fd914ab9efda373f0a5200223e0f1fb.
