Add an init command

[cshaa]

I work on a package that is published to NPM, but internally uses some JSR modules. Currently, if anyone wants to use the package, they have to manually create a .npmrc file and add @jsr:registry=https://npm.jsr.io into it. It would be great to have some kind of jsr init command which we could tell the users to use before installing our package.

Isn’t this something npx jsr add already does?

Running just npx jsr add throws with:

ERR_PNPM_MISSING_PACKAGE_NAME  `pnpm add` requires the package name
Child process exited with: 1

Therefore, we'd have to tell the users of our package to either explicitly install one of its dependencies, or to install a dummy JSR package, neither of which sounds ideal.

So you basically wanna initialize the .npmrc without having to add a specific package. Makes sense! Upvoted the idea.
