Create a new `dotnet new` template for launchSettings.json #42107

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

While launchsettings is created by some project templates, it's hard to add it retroactively to a project. The SDK should ship a launchSettings.json template (dotnet new launchsettings?) with defaults to make it easier to onboard.

cc @DamianEdwards @danroth27 for feedback on what should be in a default launchSettings.

Sounds reasonable, but what's in it really depends on the project type. We might want a parameter to indicate what type of launchsettings file is wanted (e.g. "standard", "web"), or completely separate templates (e.g. "launchsettings" and "launchsettingsweb").
