Enable an option for auto_updates true in config.hcl.

From the brew FAQ:

So we let software be. Anything installed with Homebrew Cask should behave the same as if it were installed manually. But since we also want to support software that doesn’t self-upgrade, we add auto_updates true to casks for software that does, which excludes them from brew upgrade.

Since e.g. Boundary Desktop auto updates itself, it would be beneficial to have the ability to add the auto_updates true to a Cask file.

I believe the util/formula_templater must be updated for this. :-)
