Explain that pattern names are bound by the constraints of NPM package names (in create-freesewing-pattern)

See original GitHub issue

I decided to try your framework out to mark up a simple library bag, but couldn’t.

Steps to reproduce

Using get started in seconds instructions:

npm init freesewing-pattern

Expected behavior

Everything installs and we can try it out.

Observed behavior

We should perhaps make it more clear that the name you choose here will become the name of the package

I suggest, instead or as well, making it clear you expect lowercase, or automatically converting to lowercase.

As a new user, knowing nothing about your setup or npm package naming rules, I just want to try the adjustable size pattern thing, and I get stuck at step 1 with no explanation.
