Confirmation Prompts

prompt asks for confirmation before a task runs. It is meant for tasks with side effects that are hard to undo.

## deploy

```meta
prompt = "Deploy to production?"
```

```bash
./deploy.sh
```

$ mq-task deploy
? Deploy to production? [y/N] y

y or yes (any case) confirms; anything else, including end of input, declines and fails the task with exit code 1.
--yes/-y answers yes to every prompt, for scripts and CI. echo y | mq-task deploy works too.
The question is asked after the task's if and up-to-date checks, so a skipped task never prompts.
A looped task is confirmed once, not once per item.
--dry-run prints the prompt instead of asking.
Prompts need the terminal, so they cannot be asked in parallel runs, with --output prefixed or group, or inside the TUI: those fail with a message asking for --yes. In the TUI, press x to run the task in the terminal instead.
