Closes the new-project story (T-486). The dead-end "not a git repo" dialog now
offers to initialize the folder: project.init runs git init + a non-clobbering
scaffold, then opens + announces on projectCreatedChannel so the account
roadblock fires — the same path a brand-new project takes. Adds initExistingProject
+ the `clide project init [--dir]` verb (default: the current workspace).

The UI half of the new-project flow (story T-486). A "New project…" welcome
action opens a dialog (location + name) that dispatches project.new (T-487),
opens the result, and announces it on projectCreatedChannel. The Claude
extension consumes that and shows the account roadblock — the embedded
per-workspace picker + accounts list, so a fresh project gets bound to an
account (or Default) right at birth.
The two halves stay decoupled: the welcome builtin only publishes the event
(no claude import); the claude builtin owns the account dialog. Only freshly-
created projects announce, so existing opens are never prompted.
Closes T-488. The non-repo "initialize as a project" path (T-489) is next.

The backend half of the new-project flow (story T-486). createNewProject
validates the name, makes <parent>/<name>/, runs git init (injected from the
toolchain in main.dart so the handler stays Flutter-free), and writes a minimal
scaffold (.gitignore + a CLAUDE.md stub). The project.new verb wraps it; --dir
defaults to the current workspace's parent so a new project lands beside it.
Create-only by design — opening the new workspace and the account roadblock are
the UI flow's job (T-488). Closes T-487.
