Zig: Proposal: add --git flag to init-lib and init-exe

[g-w1]

If the --git flag was passed to init-lib or init-exe, then a git repo would be initialized in the current directory, and a .gitignore would be added. I think cargo does this by default, but I feel that it should be an explicit option in zig.

Maybe we could also add different flags for different vcs.

What of just searching for .git, .pijul, and so on instead and updating the ignore files from there? Though as long as everything that's not source is kept in zig-cache it should suffice to just print a note on init which skips needing to keep track of the many version control systems.

There's not much to ignore besides zig-cache to be honest.

And zig-cache can be ignored globally.

What do you mean by print note?

I'm making a judgement call here: no opinionated integration with any particular source control software in the zig CLI. Even for the package manager, downloading from a git URL will be a "plugin".
