fix(orgs): enable organization creation defaults with --auto-create

[manovotny]

Summary

Found while reviewing clerk/clerk#2961, where the docs work around it by telling agents to patch the parent flag manually.

clerk enable orgs --auto-create patched only organization_creation_defaults.automatic_organization_creation.enabled. The API gates auto-creation on the umbrella organization_creation_defaults.enabled too, so on instances where creation defaults were never enabled the command succeeded — and no organization was ever auto-created.

Perhaps it's this way for some reason, but it tripped me up when verifying the docs contribution.

Changes

• --auto-create now sends both flags in one patch.
• Sending both together is safe: the API's enable transition seeds defaults only for sub-settings not in the request, so the explicit auto-create value wins and the remaining sub-settings get the same seeds the Dashboard flow produces. Re-sending enabled: true on an already-enabled instance is a no-op, so the command stays idempotent.
• Payload test now asserts both flags, and the command README documents the behavior.
