Add shopify store open command

[amcaplan]

WHY are these changes introduced?

Opening a store today means hunting for the right URL. Agents and humans working with stores (especially preview stores, which surface long tokenized access URLs) need a quick, reliable way to jump straight into a storefront without copying URLs around by hand.

This implements the shopify store open design shared in #proj-agentic-store-preview.

WHAT is this pull request doing?

Adds a new shopify store open --store <domain> command that opens a store's storefront in your default browser.

• New command: packages/store/src/cli/commands/store/open.ts
• New service openStore(): packages/store/src/cli/services/store/open.ts
• Registered as store:open in packages/store/src/index.ts

URL resolution goes through the existing getStoreInfo service rather than naively building a URL from the domain string. This matters for preview stores, which expose a tokenized accessUrl that can't be reconstructed from the domain alone. Regular stores resolve to https://<subdomain>. If the browser can't auto-open (e.g. cloud/headless environments), the command prints a clickable URL instead.

How to test your changes?

1. shopify store open --store <your-store>.myshopify.com — opens the storefront.
2. Try with a preview store — confirm it opens the tokenized access URL.
3. In an environment where the browser can't open, confirm a clickable URL is printed.

Unit tests: pnpm exec vitest run packages/store/src/cli/services/store/open.test.ts

Pull request overview

Adds a new shopify store open --store <domain> command to open a store’s storefront URL in the default browser, resolving preview-store tokenized URLs via the existing getStoreInfo service.

Changes:

• Introduces store open command (store:open) and registers it in the store package command map.
• Implements openStore() service that resolves the correct storefront URL (preferring accessUrl) and falls back to printing a link when the browser can’t be opened.
• Adds unit tests for both the service behavior and the command wiring, plus a changeset and updated oclif manifest entry.

As the command is hidden and therefore not user facing I don't think we should add a change set entry

[alfonso-noriega]

Would it make sense to include a password flag for those non preview stores that ask for password to get in?

[amcaplan]

I would treat that as an optional later enhancement. It still works for preview stores, which is the main focus at present, and for other stores they'll have to enter the password manually.
