mise generate config --template

Would be fantastic to be able to pre-define config templates ie in $MISE_DATA_DIR/config-templates or whatever which you can then select via

mise generate config --template [name-of-tpl]
or maybe just
mise generate config [name-of-tpl]

This way different environments/projects could have different templates like for node I could pre-define

[env]
_.path = ["./node_modules/.bin"]

which I luckily found in #3330

This might actually be interesting to add to the default, I think, but maybe not, in anyway this got me to this idea. 🤓

After the devtools episode I'm doubling down on mise, just moved all package.json scripts to .mise.toml and started using jdx/mise-action 🥳

I think this sort of thing makes sense from a general standpoint. I'm not sure about using a directory like $MISE_DATA_DIR/config-templates. I feel like what you'd really want would be the ability to have templates defined in a remote git repo or something so we should think about how that could work.

Yes totally, something like just providing a single word should look into this local directory first, because I wouldn't wanna start remote and might prefer to version my templates with my dotfiles instead of each in a separate repository, for my local only templates but then providing with a slash might be considered a GitHub repo (maybe also configurable via sth like MISE_TEMPLATE_DEFAULT_REMOTE) or you provide an absolute URI which gets the repo
