feat: default generate command to use pglite (no postgres required)

[chengyixu]

Summary

Closes #2

When running pgstrap generate, --pglite now defaults to true so users don't need a running postgres instance to generate types and SQL documentation.

Changes

• src/cli.ts: Changed --pglite default from false → true
• Added explicit --no-pglite flag as an opt-out when connecting to an external postgres instance via DATABASE_URL

Behavior

Before:

# Required a running postgres instance
bun run db:generate
# Had to pass --pglite explicitly to avoid it
bun run db:generate --pglite

After:

# Works without postgres running (uses embedded PGlite by default)
bun run db:generate

# Opt out to use external postgres via DATABASE_URL
bun run db:generate --no-pglite

Hi @seveibar, would love to get your feedback on this. The PR makes pgstrap generate default to pglite so new users don't need a running Postgres instance. All existing behavior is preserved — users can still pass a standard connection string to use a real Postgres DB.

Hi @seveibar — following up. This makes pgstrap generate default to pglite so new users don't need a running Postgres instance. All existing behavior preserved (standard connection strings still work). No CI checks configured for this repo, but the change is straightforward. Happy to address any feedback!

Friendly ping @seveibar -- this PR has been open for 37 days. It defaults the generate command to use pglite so no Postgres installation is required. Let me know if anything else is needed before review! Thanks.
