Add a new "-y, --yes" option to allow scripting of operations requiring a y/n answer from the user

[foux]

Today, it's impossible to script some operations, for example the resuming of a check in soime case.
WIth the addition of the '-y' flag, those operation can be scripted, at the discretion of the user

I'm still not willing to add a foot-gun global option as it can be destructive in some (rare) cases, but instead I'd be open to supporting scriptable "interface" with the existing unattended mechanism to some commands if there are valid usecases.

But the check command in particular should already support non-interactive, scriptable use, implemented in #87 - It's not really documented, but would this be enough for your usecase?

[foux]

With #87, if a parity disk change is in progress (or any disk change I guess), and we do a * nmdctl check pause, we can't automatically resume it, the resume will ask for a confirmation.

Thanks, that's a bug that will be fixed with #111.

nmdctl check resume should resume if there is a paused operation without confirmation, even without unattended flag.

The fix in #111 is now merged and released as nmdctl 1.22.1. Closing this PR in favor of that.
