Add arbitrary mux server command argument parsing (#738)

## Summary
- add a new `additional_arguments` module variable to pass extra
arguments to `mux server`
- parse `additional_arguments` in `run.sh` with quoted-group support so
values like paths with spaces are preserved
- keep existing `add-project` behavior while allowing additional
arbitrary flags
- add Terraform and Bun tests covering `additional_arguments` behavior
- document the new option in the module README and bump example version
references to `1.2.0`

## Why
The module previously only supported the `add-project` flag. This change
lets users pass additional `mux server` arguments without waiting for
new module variables.

## Validation
- `shellcheck --severity=warning --format=gcc
registry/coder/modules/mux/run.sh`
- `terraform -chdir=registry/coder/modules/mux test -verbose`
- `bun test registry/coder/modules/mux/main.test.ts`

## Breaking changes
None.

+### Pass Arbitrary `mux server` Arguments
+
+Use `additional_arguments` to append additional arguments to `mux server`.
+The module parses quoted values, so grouped arguments remain intact.

+```tf
+module "mux" {
+  count                = data.coder_workspace.me.start_count
