Please do not 'rm -rf <unquoted variable>. Also please do not 'rm -rf' without confirmation, use 'rm -r' instead!

Background

I just did the "tutorial" and thankfully I implemented this change before I did, because I would've been MOST unhappy if this happened:

[coenraad@r2t2 AutoGPT]$ ./run agent create test
🎉 New agent 'test' created. The code for your new agent is in: agents/test
[coenraad@r2t2 AutoGPT]$ ./run agent start test
⌛ Running setup for agent 'test'...
Path /home/coenraad/AutoGPT/agents/benchmark for agbenchmark does not exist
Press ENTER to remove /home/coenraad/.venv
^C

$ /usr/bin/du $(poetry env info --path) --max-depth=0 -h|sort -h
14G	/home/coenraad/.venv

My connectivity isn't that great, and this environment, being my development environment, has packages accumulated over months. This is not my reproducible production machine, it's my personal dev machine... maybe I shouldn't try out new projects outside of a sandbox.... but a lot of people do, and this can really bite them.

Changes 🏗️

Quoted the "$ENV_PATH". Also made sure the script fails, if the rm command fails.
Also added a double confirmation.
Also added a way to skip the confirmation: touch delete. We can add that to the docs or any CI, if confirmed safe.

This also closes #7404

The failing CI test looks like it's unrelated to the change.

[Swiftyos]

@dagelf I'm glad you caught this before you deleted all your packages!

This bit of code is pretty unused now and the tutorials are well out of date. The forge will be removed soon too.

That said, and to avoid us wiping others env without their knowledge, this is a good idea. Thank you 🙏

@kcze Can you check the situation with the forge ci please.

It there's a CI issue, just touch 'delete' in the directory this is called from to skip the prompts. @kcze cc: @Pwuts

Forge CI fail seems unrelated

It there's a CI issue, just touch 'delete' in the directory this is called from to skip the prompts.

I don't understand, CI issue is unrelated to the functionality this PR introduces
