Description

Most plugins have specific configuration. We could let them hook in the kinto init command when installed in the venv to generate their default configuration in this file and help the user to change the mandatory ones.

Research direction
Investigate the current implementation of the `kinto init` command in the CLI module (likely `kinto/cli.py` or similar). Study the plugin integration mechanism (e.g., entry points or hook system). Propose a new hook that plugins can use to inject their default configuration during initialization. Check for any existing issues or PRs that discuss this feature to understand desired behavior.
