feat: add option to keep default Import alias of create-next-app

[Parth589]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I personally use create-next-app import alias @/* alot in my projects. shadcn/ui is also an important tool in my recent projects. i dont want to change the pasted code from templates. it's so annoying to everytime change the import statements just for an alias.

Describe the solution you'd like to see

just add an option to keep the import alias to @/ . i am tired of writing that while initializing all new projects.

Describe alternate solutions

You can just remove the ~/ alias from this project so everyone could be happy. (no offence but it's my personal opinion)

@Parth589 You can just write @/ when it prompts for what import alias you'd like to use when initializing a project.

yea this issue makes no sense. No matter what default we pick, some are gonna argue for another one. It's not a lot of work for you to just write @/ when it prompts you.

We could also store your "preferred" setting in some global store (I think create-next-app does this) but that's a bigger task, although I'd be open for it! (open a new issue outlining this if so)

But we settled on the current default after a community vote so we're not gonna change it just cause of individuals personal prefrence.
