Overview

Introduce a theme duplicate command in the cli, so developers can duplicate a theme in the library.

Motivation

Pushing an entire new theme via cli takes considerably longer than duplicating a pre existing theme - especially in cases where the merchant has lots of assets.

In my workflow, I never overwrite the live theme directly. Instead, when deploying, I create a new theme and allow the merchant to review it before making the decision to publish.

With the duplicate command, I could simply duplicate the live theme and push any changes to it - in that case only the files that have changed will be overwritten.

This is a clone of the (closed) issue here: https://github.com/Shopify/cli/issues/2000

Just to reiterate, this would be very useful for CI/CD workflows.
