Confirmation prompt for deletion about curator

[untergeek]

I'm sorry if you accidentally deleted something you did not mean to delete. The functionality you are seeking already exists, after a fashion (just no prompting).

The --dry-run or -n flag lets you see the output of what curator Would have attempted:

$ curator --dry-run delete --older-than 4

Since this functionality is already here, and since Curator is designed to be able to do these things without needing user input by default, I will not be adding confirmation dialogue.

Ah got it, makes sense. Thx!
