CLI: Don't initially select Documentation and Testing features

[ghengeveld]

What I did

Changed the initial selected state for features from Documentation and Testing to none. This means users will have to explicitly opt-in to install these features, giving us better signal on whether they are desired.

Greptile Summary

This PR modifies Storybook's initialization behavior to make Documentation and Testing features opt-in rather than enabled by default.

• Modified feature selection in code/lib/create-storybook/src/initiate.ts to remove auto-selection of docs and test features
• Features must now be explicitly selected in interactive mode rather than pre-selected
• Maintains existing behavior of auto-adding docs in CI and both docs/test with --yes flag
• Aims to gather better signal on feature adoption by requiring explicit opt-in
• Affects only new Storybook installations, not existing ones
