feat(ui)!: emit prompt "messages" as cmdline events #31525

Problem:  Prompts are emitted as messages events, where cmdline events
          are more appropriate. The user input is also emitted as
          message events in fast context, so cannot be displayed with
          vim.ui_attach().
Solution: Prompt for user input through cmdline prompts.
