Subject: [PATCH] docs: Add existing project initialization to getting started

Add commands for initializing Spec Kit in existing projects directly
in the installation section. Shows both `specify init .` and
`specify init --here` options to make brownfield usage immediately
discoverable.

Fixes #1285
