Allow CLI to change name of Component

[nmarch213]

Summary

Similarly to being able to choose the dir for the installation. It would be helpful to change the name of the component.

npx shadcn-ui add dialog

Adding to an existing project I already had a similarly named component and it just overwrote the file entirely as stated

Suggested Approach

Add another prompt similar to asking for 'dir' but for the component name.

It would:

• Prompt for Component Name
• Name the folder appropriately
• Rename the internal Generated Component to the entered name
  • If you chose "Modal" it would Modal.tsx
  • Component Names would be ModalDescription, ModalTitle, ModalFooter, Modal...
• Update the Exports to the new names

This all can be done manually once installed but would be neat out of the box!

Thanks for your hard work :)
