Description

The sqlcmd create mssql command and all of the surrounding lifecycle commands (start/stop/delete) etc. is a complete end to end scenario that would be useful as it's own golang pkg which can be imported/re-used/tested as it's own package.

We should probably also create a separate package just the functionality that operates over ~/.sqlcmd/sqlconfig

Research direction

Start by tracing the sqlcmd create mssql command and its related start, stop, and delete lifecycle commands. Then inspect the functionality operating over ~/.sqlcmd/sqlconfig; done means the lifecycle behavior and configuration handling are separated into reusable, independently testable Go packages.
