- The `DisableInputEcho` and `PromptForInput` utilities were added in c15ade0 as part of a bug-fix, which was part of v28.x. [There are no (publicly visible) users][1] of either. - The `ErrPromptTerminated` was added in v26.x (originally added in 10bf91a, later updated in commit 7c722c0. [It is not used][2] - The `PromptForConfirmation` was added in [moby@280c872] (docker v1.13.0) as part of the `docker <object> prune` subcommands. It was meant for internal use but exported to allow re-using it in the `container`, `image` (etc.) packages. However, a breaking change to its signature was made in 10bf91a. It currently does [not appear to have any (public) users][2]. This patch removes the `ErrPromptTerminated`, `DisableInputEcho`, `PromptForInput`, and `PromptForConfirmation` utilities from the `cli/command` package. The core functionality of these is still available in the `internal/prompt` package, which we may make public at some point, but still needs some refining / decoupling.
