add a jx create wizard/quickstart for lile

[jstrachan]

this looks a nice fast way to create golang gRPC services

might be nice to have a jx create lile or jx create quickstart lile wizard?

Hi @jstrachan! whats the idea behind this?
The challenge is, lile itself is a generator. I can see two options:

1. Add a new entry with pre-generated values of lile to here

.
├── server
│   ├── server.go
│   └── server_test.go
├── subscribers
│   └── subscribers.go
├── app1
│   ├── cmd
│   │   ├── root.go
│   │   └── up.go
│   └── main.go
├── app1.proto
├── client.go
├── Makefile
├── Dockerfile
└── .gitignore

Then any updates to lile generator mainstream does not come automatically.
2. Make a way to run lile with jx.
In that case, more information is needed on how to implemented.

I was thinking of option 2 - run lile from the command line to generate a new project source then effectively run jx import on the generated source. That is kinda what jx create spring & jx create quickstart do today; a wizard to generate a project source - then is imported (creating a git repo, adding the build pack etc).

Maybe the code of those 2 commands might act as a base for creating create_lile.go?

eg https://github.com/jenkins-x/jx/blob/master/pkg/jx/cmd/create_spring.go

a first cut could be to run lile to create the project then call the import function like the last line in the above go file

@jstrachan I didnt manage to write any unit test for these. Let me know if needed.
