Docs for initializing the frontend are incorrect

These docs (for the manual/hard mode setup) point to a command that does not exist.

(augur_venv) (base) admin@Administrators-MacBook-Air augur % uv run augur config init-frontend
warning: `VIRTUAL_ENV=/Users/admin/augur_venv` does not match the project environment path `.venv` and will be ignored; use `--active` to target the active environment instead
      Built augur @ file:///Users/admin/augur
Uninstalled 1 package in 2ms
Installed 9 packages in 19ms
Usage: augur config [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...
Try 'augur config --help' for help.

Error: No such command 'init-frontend'.

In modern versions of augur, the webUI is run automatically and is on port 5002 by default

@LSUDOKO There are already linked PRs against this, indicating someone else has already claimed it.

I would recommend finding a different issue to get started on (or even try running augur and help us check to make sure things are working okay and that other parts of the documentation are correct).

I'd be happy to chat about this in more detail over on the CHAOSS Slack in the #wg-augur-8knot channel if you'd like help finding other "good first issues" that you can get started with.
