Shopify/cli stopped hand-duplicating its supported extension flavors in the --flavor flag, which had been rejecting template-valid values like liquid and config-only before the generator ever saw the selection.

Keep extension flavor flag options in sync with supported values Shopify/cli

by durga256

The flag's option list and the ExtensionFlavorValue type now derive from a single definition, so a flavor the CLI supports can no longer be refused by argument parsing before the template check runs. Previously the hardcoded list had drifted from ExtensionFlavorValue and dropped liquid and config-only; this closes that gap as a follow-up to #9013.
