tsc --init --target es2015 generates es6 tsconfig.json

Bug Report

When running tsc --init --target es2015, the generated target is es6.

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    /* Visit https://aka.ms/tsconfig.json to read more about this file */

    /* Basic Options */
    // "incremental": true,                         /* Enable incremental compilation */
    "target": "es6"                                 /* Specify ECMAScript target version: 'ES3' (default), 'ES5', 'ES2015', 'ES2016', 'ES2017', 'ES2018', 'ES2019', 'ES2020', or 'ESNEXT'. */
}

This is unfortunate as the generated file looks as if it was having an invalid option.

🕗 Version & Regression Information

I'm using tsc 4.2.4, and replicated with tsc 4.4.0-dev.20210518

• I was unable to test this on prior versions because I don't think this is an actual regression. I found b871b5353c8a9ca6dedd6bc84706fd75ed86bae4, and I suspect that this is a left-over.

🙁 Actual behavior

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "es6"                                 /* Specify ECMAScript target version: 'ES3' (default), 'ES5', 'ES2015', 'ES2016', 'ES2017', 'ES2018', 'ES2019', 'ES2020', or 'ESNEXT'. */
}

🙂 Expected behavior

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "es2015"                                 /* Specify ECMAScript target version: 'ES3' (default), 'ES5', 'ES2015', 'ES2016', 'ES2017', 'ES2018', 'ES2019', 'ES2020', or 'ESNEXT'. */
}

Empieza por localizar la implementación que genera el tsconfig.json para tsc --init y el mapeo utilizado para los nombres de --target. Reproduce el comando con es2015 y, después, verifica que el target generado y su comentario explicativo usan la ortografía esperada.
