bircni 55c3a392a1 feat: generate the gt command reference from gitea/cli
update_cli_docs.sh runs gt's own generator and lays the pages out for the
site: one directory per command group, front matter, titles, sidebar
order, fenced help text and rewritten links. --released succeeds while no
series is documented. A weekly workflow proposes updates like the runner's.

Create an account
## Synopsis
```text
Create an account. On a terminal, gt asks for a missing username, email address and
password; the new account must change its password on its first sign-in unless
--must-change-password=false is passed.
```

```
## Examples

$ gt admin user create carol --email [email protected]
# read the password from a file instead of a prompt
$ gt admin user create ci-bot --email [email protected] --password-file pw.txt --must-change-password=false
```
