Describe the feature

Visual Studio Code has a feature to manage extensions through command line flags:

--install-extension <ext-id | path> Installs or updates an extension. The argument is either an extension id or a path to a VSIX [...]
--pre-release                       Installs the pre-release version of the extension, when using --install-extension
--uninstall-extension <ext-id>      Uninstalls an extension.
--update-extensions                 Update the installed extensions.

A similar feature for Zed would be useful, as extensions don't need to be fully managed through the GUI, enabling installing extensions through package managers.

If applicable, add mockups / screenshots to help present your vision of the feature
