Sebastiaan van Stijn c88268681e prevent login prompt on registry operations with no TTY attached
When pulling or pushing images, the CLI could prompt for a password
if the push/pull failed and the registry returned a 401 (Unauthorized)

Ironically, this feature did not work when using Docker Hub (and possibly
other registries using basic auth), due to some custom error handling added
in [moby@19a93a6e3d42], which also discards the registry's status code,
changing it to a 404;

    curl -v -XPOST --unix-socket /var/run/docker.sock 'http://localhost/v1.50/images/create?fromImage=docker.io%2Fexample%2Fprivate&tag=latest'
    ...
    < HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
    < Content-Type: application/json
    ...
    {"message":"pull access denied for example/private, repository does not exist or may require 'docker login'"}

And due to a bug, other registries (not using basic auth) returned a generic
error, which resulted in a 500 Internal Server Error. That bug was fixed in
docker 28.2, now returning the upstream status code and trigger an interactive
prompt;

    docker pull icr.io/my-ns/my-image:latest
    Please login prior to pull:
    Username:

This prompt would be triggered unconditionally, also if the CLI was run
non-interactively and no TTY attached;

    docker pull icr.io/my-ns/my-image:latest < /dev/null
    Please login prior to pull:
    Username:

With this PR, no prompt is shown ;

    # without STDIN attached
    docker pull icr.io/my-ns/my-image:latest < /dev/null
    Error response from daemon: error from registry: Authorization required. See https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/Registry?topic=Registry-troubleshoot-auth-req - Authorization required. See https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/Registry?topic=Registry-troubleshoot-auth-req

For now, the prompt is still shown otherwise;

    docker pull icr.io/my-ns/my-image:latest

    Login prior to pull:
    Username: ^C
