More automation with 'fin init'

Site provisioning can be automated using fin init, which calls the shell script in .docksal/commands/init.
This script is meant to be modified per project.

Some common tasks that can be handled in the init script:

• initialize local settings files for Docker Compose, Drupal, Behat, etc.
• import DB or perform a site install
• compile Sass
• run DB updates, revert features, clear caches, etc.
• enable/disable modules, update variables values
• run Behat tests
