Add non-interactive flag support to create-plugin command

- Add --name and --module flags for non-interactive plugin creation
- Implement flag parsing and validation using existing validation functions
- Support plugin names with or without mattermost-plugin- prefix
- Maintain backward compatibility with interactive mode as fallback
- Update help text and examples to document new flag options
