Ask for the passphrase on the controlling terminal, not stdin (closes #144)

The passphrase and mnemonic prompts open /dev/tty and ask there, so `echo v | secret add s1 --force`, `secret encrypt` and `secret decrypt` with piped input ask at a terminal instead of failing. Only a process with no controlling terminal still gets the error naming the variable to set. `secret init` and `secret vault create` no longer write a newline to stderr after the mnemonic. On SIGINT or SIGTERM, Entry() restores the settings of /dev/tty instead of stdin, since that is where the prompt turns echo off. The two tests that pin the no-terminal message run the binary in a new session, so it has no terminal wherever the tests run. Unverified by a test: the echo restore after Ctrl-C, checked by hand. Model: opus-5-5

# Completed Steps
|
||||
|
||||
- 2026-10-14: The passphrase and mnemonic prompts ask on the controlling
|
||||
terminal (`/dev/tty`) instead of stdin, so `echo v | secret add s1 --force`,
|
||||
`cat file | secret encrypt key` and `cat file.age | secret decrypt key` ask
|
||||
for the passphrase at a terminal instead of failing
|
||||
(https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/secret/issues/144). Only a process with no
|
||||
controlling terminal gets the error that names the variable to set. On SIGINT
|
||||
or SIGTERM, `Entry()` restores the settings of that terminal, not of stdin,
|
||||
since that is where the prompt turns echo off. `secret init` and
|
||||
`secret vault create` no longer write a newline to stderr after the mnemonic
|
||||
is typed, since the prompt ends that line on the terminal.
|
||||
- 2026-10-14: `secret generate mnemonic`, `secret vault list` and
|
||||
`secret unlocker list` print their output to stdout, as `secret list` does, so
|
||||
it can be piped or captured (https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/secret/issues/138).
