azd init - option to not generate infra

• Make sure you've installed the latest version using instructions in the wiki

Output from azd version
Run azd version and copy and paste the output here:
azd version 1.9.5 (commit cd2b7af)

Describe the bug
Trying to start my own azd app + infra by using azd init. The cli forces me to add a service which then downloads bicep code in my infra folder, which I dont want, I have my own infra as code, I do not want to use the pre-created infra as code templates attached to the service definitions.

To Reproduce
create a folder with infra folder

Expected behavior
I want an option to just use my own infra folder with own bicep code, but still make my project enabled for AZD

Can you tell us more about what you want to happen? Do you just want the azure.yaml file?

Sure, from reading the documentation:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/developer/azure-developer-cli/start-with-existing-template

I'd like all assets that are normally created by azd init.

In hindsight, another way to achieve what I want is to just create a project based on the started bicep template, and then retrofit my code there. feel free to close my issue.

@weikanglim @kristenwomack - Here's a potential improvement for azd init. Can you have a look at the original ask?
