… `vp add`
Running `vp install` or `vp add` in a directory without package.json previously
failed with "Package not found in workspace". Now a minimal `{ "type": "module" }`
package.json is created automatically, allowing PM detection and install to proceed.
When running `vp pm`, `vp outdated`, `vp why`, and other package manager commands in a directory without package.json, the error was verbose and unfriendly. Now shows a clean "No package.json found." message without the "Error: " prefix by introducing an Error::UserMessage variant.
