[pipelines/environments] Ability to create and configure pipeline environments via the cli

Related command

az pipelines environments create/delete/update/list - ability to carry out the actions specified on the API (appears to only be visible on 6.0, I can’t find the documentation around 7.*

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently, creating environments via the UI is REALLY painful, and having the ability to create them automatically using the az command would be great (I have managed to get this to work in postman but would be nice to see this supported by the cli)

Describe the solution you’d like

Ability to create and manage azure pipeline environments which back deployment jobs which appear to be a replacement for the old release pipelines which are all UI driven.

Describe alternatives you’ve considered

Moving away from Azure DevOps as the CD element feels anti-automation.

Additional context

I’ve been reading the API documentation but the issues raised around it here: https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/vsts-rest-api-specs/issues/526 appear to be ignored and not maintained which leaves little faith in the API documentation produced by Microsoft.
