[Feat/Bug] pnpm init does not respect init.* options as flags like npm init --init-*

[josh-hemphill]

Contribution

• I'd be willing to implement this feature (contributing guide)

Describe the user story

I often have multiple folders to init, and when the defaults are specific there's no way to set them all other than manually, but I'd like to be able to set defaults on the cli so I can easily create a bunch of package.json files by just modifying a cli one-liner, or write some automation to iterate with the option flags.

In fact, npm has actually deprecated using the config options instead of the cli flags as introduced in pnpm with #4422

Describe the solution you'd like

I'd actually like it if pnpm allowed more of the default values to be set with flags, since that would add even more convenience.

Describe the drawbacks of your solution

Nothing I can think of.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Using npm

It seems to be a duplicate of #7711.

Ah, didn't manage to find that one (not much searchable text/keywords on it 😅). Should I close this or link them?
