Add a "retry" option to "Something is already running on port X" message #8701

Description

@jake-nz

Is your proposal related to a problem?

Whenever I get the "Something is already running on port X" message it's because I was working on another project and left it running. My response is always to find it and quit it. I then have to say no to "Would you like to run the app on another port instead?" and run start again.

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be nice if the options were "yes", "no" and "retry" so that I could just quit the other process and then come back and press r to carry on.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I usually press n for no and then run start again. It doesn't ruin my day though.

Additional context

I suspect that others also have the same desire to quit the other process and retry on the default port.
