Adds --assume-yes to cache clear command to suppress prompts

[colindean]

I had a perceived need to blow away my cache entirely and did so with:

for cache in `poetry cache list`; do poetry cache clear $cache --all; done

but was annoyed by having to answer yes for each of the many caches I had. This PR adds an --assume-yes|-y command like apt's that skips prompts.

Potential future work: Add a special syntax poetry cache clear '*' --all --assume-yes or poetry cache implode that will clear all entries in all caches.

Hi @colindean, thanks for the PR! We actually already have a global --no-interaction, -n flag that is meant to do the exact same thing. It works by making every call to confirm() etc use the default value. It's broken for this command -- I discussed it with @Secrus a couple weeks ago, but I got side-tracked and never investigated personally.

Any chance you two could sync up and you could convert this PR to one that fixes the existing option?

I was summoned.
Like @neersighted stated, we already have --no-interaction flag, coming for all commands from cleo, our CLI framework. Current bug is that here:

poetry/src/poetry/console/commands/cache/clear.py

Line 58 in 0686427

delete = self.confirm(f"<question>Delete {entries_count} entries?</>")

you need to add default=True argument to self.confirm method call, for cleo to handle it properly as "if --no-interactions, agree". That's a small, easy fix.

Thanks for #6338! I couldn't get around to acting until today and I'm glad the better solution is in, now.
