'Setup workflow' project setup screen is too dumb #989

Description

@markoa

Is your improvement proposal related to a problem? Please describe.

  1. I'm configuring a small Ruby project and it's offering me a "fan-in/fan-out SaaS" workflow?! Semaphore used to auto-detect programming language a decade ago but somewhere along the way this got lost.
  2. The list of 'CI Workflows' below covers only 7 languages, repeats Elixir 3x, does not mention containers for example or Apple support... painting a very wrong picture of a CI/CD platform with extremely limited capabilities.
  3. There is no way to discover and use Workflow Builder.
  4. There's a search input... what for?

(Not each of above points necessarily need to be addressed, it's likely there are solutions that make some of the points irrelevant.)
