create-astro: always create tsconfig.json (#4810)
* `create-astro`: always create `tsconfig.json`

Currently, we only make sure `tsconfig.json` exists when `strict` or `strictest` is selected. Both `default` & `optout` are intended to correspond to `base` -- and will do so for all [23 official templates](https://github.com/withastro/astro/tree/main/examples), but not necessarily for third-party templates.

The [example command for installing a third-party template](https://github.com/withastro/astro/blob/a800bf7/packages/create-astro/README.md?plain=1#L31-L35) is (rather conveniently for the sake of this PR!) an example of a template without a `tsconfig.json` file, and installing it with the `default` ("Relaxed") Typescript option results in no `tsconfig.json` file, rather than a `tsconfig.json` file containing `{ "extends": "astro/tsconfigs/base" }` as would be expected.

This PR addresses this scenario. 

It also explicitly sets the `tsconfig.json` file to `{ "extends": "astro/tsconfigs/base" }` when `default` (which I renamed to `base`, still presented to the user as "Relaxed") or `optout` is selected (`optout` has always printed a warning about the importance of `tsconfig.json` & `src/env.d.ts` but otherwise behaved identically to `default`). This is necessary in two scenarios:

1. When the `tsconfig.json` file was created by this script.
2. When it either didn't already include `"extends"`, or it extended a different config by default. For example, some third-party templates might default to `strict`, in which case I'm guessing we'd want to respect the user's choice and change that to `base`.

* update `del` 6.1.1 --> 7.0.0

* test: prevent excess writes
(without this it triggers many times)

* test: create-astro typescript prompt

* changeset

* fix: recursive `mkdirSync`

* test: longer timeout for `windows-latest` OS
(see if this fixes failing tests)

* better glob path creation, don't hardcode `/`

* test: longer timeout for windows-latest OS
(since I'm about to trigger another CI run by pushing a commit, might as well try this too)

* create-astro test: show last CLI output on timeout

* drop variable timeout
Typescript tests are slower than directory tests, but they are all usually less than 5000 ms. Less complexity, easier to maintain.

* DRY new error output

* Update lockfile

* Sync lockfile with main

* Update lockfile

create-astro
minor

Alway write chosen config to tsconfig.json.

  • Before: Only when strict & strictest was selected
  • After: Also when base is selected (via "Relaxed" or "I prefer not to use TypeScript")
