Give user the option to override the `.env` file on bootstrapping the dashboard app #1635

Preliminary Checks

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

I had accidentally created a .env file in the dashboard directory, and upon trying to run the dashboard app I was encountering issues related to missing UNKEY_WEBHOOK_API_KEYS and ENCRYPTION_KEYS. Turns out that this information is logged in the terminal if the file already exists, but I oversaw it mostly because I was using an integrated VSCode terminal which was smaller in dimensions and I had to scroll up in order to see the information that I was not aware of.

Describe the solution

It would be nice if the user had the option to override the existing .env file instead of manually copying it over. It could be possible that the user has other variables defined in the file for which they can always opt out of overriding the file and instead manually add the values.

Describe alternatives you have considered (if any)
