This adds a new `noop` start/configure mode to tbot that starts no services. While of dubious utility on its own, the intent is to add a CLI flow that mirrors our [documentation flow], where we first onboard a bot, then configure services in a follow-up guide. Currently, `tbot configure` can only generate a configuration with a service, so it isn't able to help generate the initial empty YAML config file. Additionally, it is useful for verifying onboarding config and making sure the bot can join the cluster. [documentation flow]: https://goteleport.com/docs/machine-workload-identity/deployment/linux/
