Creates the configuration files used by Arc resource bridge. Credentials that are provided during `createconfig`, such as vCenter credentials for VMware vSphere, are stored in a configuration file and locally within Arc resource bridge. These credentials should be a separate user account used only by Arc resource bridge, with permission to view, create, delete, and manage on-premises resources. If the credentials change, then the credentials on the resource bridge should be rotated.

The `createconfig` command features two modes: interactive and non-interactive. Interactive mode provides helpful prompts that explain the parameter and what to pass. To initiate interactive mode, pass only the three required parameters. Non-interactive mode allows you to pass all the parameters needed to create the configuration files without being prompted, which saves time and is useful for automation scripts.

The `deploy` command deploys an on-premises instance of Arc resource bridge as an appliance VM, bootstrapped to be a Kubernetes management cluster. This command gets all necessary pods and agents within the Kubernetes cluster into a running state. Once the appliance VM is up, the kubeconfig file is generated.
