Teach the GTK2/3 ssh-askpass the new prompt hints
ssh/ssh-agent now sets a hint environment variable $SSH_ASKPASS_PROMPT when running the askpass program. This is intended to allow the askpass to vary its UI across the three cases it supports: asking for a passphrase, confirming the use of a key and (recently) reminding a user to touch their security key. This adapts the gnome-ssh-askpass[23] to use these hints. Specifically, for SSH_ASKPASS_PROMPT=confirm it will skip the text input box and show only "yes"/"no" buttons. For SSH_ASKPASS_PROMPT=none (used to remind users to tap their security key), it shows only a "close" button. Help wanted: adapt the other askpass programs in active use, including x11-ssh-askpass, lxqt-openssh-askpass, etc.
