The arbitrary limit adds complexity to the code without value - if a prompt doesn't have any options that are satisfying for the user, then they can CTRL-C to cancel.

The retry limit doesn't add much value - if user doesn't want
to answer a prompt, they can CTRL-C.

Additionally, prompt_yesno doesn't have a retry limit, so
this increases prompt behaviour consistency.

Depends on D106814
