Changes

Update the list of available choices when running create astro to include the minimal starter.

This is useful for people taking the introductory tutorial in docs, creating minimal reproductions, and for experienced users starting projects from scratch.

In particular, it avoids needing to document workarounds to installing the minimal template for the tutorial via a template flag. (For example, Powershell users cannot follow the command as provided. This leads to them choosing the wrong template at the start of the tutorial, and is confusing when their code doesn't match the tutorial instructions.)

Closes Docs Issue withastro/docs#10843

Testing

Not tested!

Docs

The tutorial docs will be updated (simplified) to no longer require installing the minimal starter using a template flag. (Can be updated separately, as the existing instructions will still work.)
