_auto_select_backend gains a prompt parameter (default True). When
prompt=False the docker-fallback [i/d/q] menu is skipped and the call
dies immediately with an actionable message ("set
BOT_BOTTLE_BACKEND=docker or install a VM backend"), preventing hangs
in CI, webhook dispatch, and orchestrator launches.

prepare_with_preflight passes prompt=not spec.headless so the headless
start path can never block waiting for TTY input it cannot receive.
