What happened?

The npx @wdio/cli config command does not add @wdio/cli to package.json, which is an entrypoint for running e2e tests

What is your expected behavior?

@wdio/cli config must be added to package.json

How to reproduce the bug.

In an empty directory just do: npm init -y && npx @wdio/cli config -y and after that try npm run wdio. An attempt to run tests will obviously fail, because there is no wdio CLI available if it's not installed globally or if it's not added to package.json as a dependency.

PS: as for now it's required to take care about creating package.json (that's why I do npm init -y) because of #13771. But even if @wdio/cli config took care about creating package.json as expected, the @wdio/cli wouldn't be added anyway.

Relevant log output

/test2 # npm run wdio

> test2@1.0.0 wdio
> wdio run ./wdio.conf.js

sh: wdio: not found
