Feature Proposal: Interactive Configuration Initialization (commitg init)

[geekayush]

Summary

Introduce a new CLI command, commitg init, which interactively guides users through the setup of Commit-G configuration using the prompts package. This command will generate a configuration file in the project root based on user input, streamlining the onboarding and configuration process.

Motivation

• Reduce friction for new users by eliminating the need to manually create and edit configuration files.
• Ensure correct configuration by validating user input and providing sensible defaults.
• Improve user experience with a guided, interactive setup.
