If you are using btrfs restore to try to recover a very large or
fragmented file, you may encounter _lots_ of prompts requiring
you to press 'y' to continue because we are looping a lot.

Add the option to press 'a', to supress these prompts for the rest
of the file.

Since option 'a' is added, it would be better to change the prompt and 
add 'a' to it.

If add any comment or change the return value from immediate number to 
more meaningful defined number,
it would be much more easier to understand and expend.
Especially when the return value has difference meaning with original one.

Also, just a suggestion and you can ignore it without any problem,
utils.c provide ask_to_continue() function to provide similar behavior, 
what about improve the one in utils.c
and reuse the ask_to_continue() function?

Thanks,
