Description

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
Azure CLI don't provide a way to specify a name when creating a network watcher resource, like the PowerShell cmdlet and AMR template do.
It's frustrating because it just breaks all the organization naming convention in place.

**Describe the solution you'd like**
Example:
az network watcher configure -g custom-rg -n my-nw-custom-name -l westus --enabled true

**Describe alternatives you've considered**
ARM template. But it's a pain to always have to rely to ARM template because of missing feature in the CLI.

**Additional context**
None.
