Show confirmation message on `docker-compose down`

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I think a lot of us had situation in which you've called docker-compose down instead of docker-compose stop and removed all containers with data

Describe the solution you'd like Add a simple warning message

# docker-compose down
This will stop and remove all your containers. Are you sure [y/N]

Additional context check on Ubuntu 20.04 with docker-compose version 1.29.2, build 5becea4c

maybe with support for "-y" flag to bypass the check

This idea is actual for v2.6.0 of docker compose. Still no any kind of warning (

I'd like to see this feature added as well.

docker-compose down does not remove volumes, so if you use those, data won't get lost.

Introducing a confirmation to compose down would be a significant compatibility break which will have impact on thousands users having scripts to manage compose applications, that's not an option we can adopt.
