Add interactive mode to user agent (#4497)
## Changes
This PR adds terminal capability detection to the user agent string to
track what proportion of CLI invocations support interactive features.
Having a better understanding of how the CLI is being used, and which
commands are called in which context, can help guide us to improve the
UX without over-investing in commands that are never used in a certain
context
The user agent will include one of three values:
- `interactive/full`: Both interactive output (spinners, colors) and
user prompts are supported. Requires stderr to be a TTY, color enabled,
stdin to be a TTY, and not running in Git Bash.
- `interactive/output`: Interactive output is supported but prompts are
not. This occurs when stdin is not a TTY (e.g., input piped) or when
running in Git Bash (which has broken readline/ANSI support).
- `interactive/none`: Non-interactive environment where neither spinners
nor prompts work. This includes CI/CD pipelines, cron jobs, and cases
where stderr is redirected.
## Implementation
- Add `InteractiveMode()` method to `Capabilities` struct in
`libs/cmdio`
- Add `GetInteractiveMode(ctx)` public function using `fromContext`
(consistent with other accessors)
- Create `cmd/root/user_agent_interactive_mode.go` to integrate with
user agent
- Add `withInteractiveModeInUserAgent()` call in `root.go`
- Comprehensive test coverage for all three interactive modes
## Why User Agent Instead of Telemetry
As discussed with @pietern, this should be added to the user agent
rather than telemetry because:
- **Broader coverage**: User agent data is captured on every
authenticated API call across all commands, while telemetry only fires
on `bundle deploy`
- **No latency impact**: Telemetry is sent synchronously which adds
latency; user agent has no performance impact
## Use Case
This telemetry helps inform decisions about when the CLI can prompt
users for missing information versus requiring explicit flags. By
measuring the proportion of invocations in each mode, we can understand
how often interactive prompts would actually be shown to users.
This will also help track the impact of changes that affect interactive
behavior.
## Tests
Added comprehensive unit tests covering:
- All three interactive modes (full, output, none)
- Various TTY configurations (stdin, stderr combinations)
- Git Bash detection
- User agent integration
