CLI wizard for building a Nextflow config

[ewels]

Description of feature

It would be great to have an nf-core config command with a wizard similar to nf-core launch that builds a config file. Goes through common options like container engine and executor, not params.

Could also be optionally invoked as part of nf-core launch, maybe in combination with choosing a profile from nf-core/configs.

Massive fan of that. Been waiting for that for ages (I thought I had made a issue but I guess I forgot)

Note: Could refer to the making institutional config tutorial for question inspiration

I wonder if it could be semi dynamic: auto detection of scheduling system (is sbatch/qsub on path for example), and ask the user if that is correct

Damn it, that was my idea but now you wrote it so I have to give credit to you! 😆 (you probably suggested it ages ago and now I did that annoying thing where I think I had an original idea 🤣 )

If I forgot then it's my fault !
Let's call it independent genius and share 😜.

I'm happy to help guide/planning whoever ends up implementing!
