Zach 3f76f312e4 feat(cli): add --no-wait flag to coder create (#22867)
Adds a `--no-wait` flag (CODER_CREATE_NO_WAIT) to the create command,
matching the existing pattern in `coder start`. When set, the `coder
create` command returns immediately after the workspace creation API
call succeeds instead of streaming build logs until completion.

This enables fire-and-forget workspace creation in CI/automation
contexts (e.g., GitHub Actions), where waiting for the build to finish
is unnecessary. Combined with other existing flags, users can create a
workspace with no interactivity, assuming the user is already
authenticated.
