Add more support to yarn create

[sandhilt]

Yarn supports add "create-*" in global env and update automagically: https://yarnpkg.com/docs/cli/create/
Why don't create an alias? like yarn create angular-app ng-app

I use a command similar in npm with npx

npx @angular/cli new ng-app --minimal

This would be very nice. The package create-angular-app already exists on npm.

The create command supports namespaces as well though.

It could be something like:

yarn create @angular/cli my-app

This would require the cli to be published as @angular/create-cli as well.

Another option I like is yarn create @angular/app my-app which would require a @angular/create-app package to be published.

However, my initial thought is that yarn should have a generalized command and function like npx.

We were able to take ownership of the create-angular package, which is how yarn create angular would actually be implemented. Currently this package is empty, so we'll need to push a new version that just runs ng new. Hopefully we can do a simple one-off publish, but we might need to include this in our usual release cycle (sadly npx is not installed by default with yarn, so we can't just npx @angular/cli@latest new).
