Scripts: a script can't confirm executing a file for itself (#1246)

With Warn User When Executing Files on, file.executeFile asks the
frontend first, and the frontend's answer re-runs it with
`confirmed: true`. That flag was taken from the parameters whoever
called, so a script could pass it itself (app.run('file.executeFile',
{path, confirmed: true}), also inside engine.batch) and the file opened
without the question, as long as the user had allowed file and network
access.

`confirmed` now counts only when the command isn't running for a script
(Session::running_for_script, which #590 uses for the same reason and
which stays set through nested batches). A script's request always gets
the question; the user's answer from the frontend's form still opens
the file; with the warning off nothing changes. The permission gate
itself is unchanged.

Tests: engine a_script_cannot_confirm_executing_a_file_for_itself
(execute_for_script directly and through engine.batch; the frontend's
confirmation; warning off) and the same through real JavaScript in the
script crate (app.run, app.run('engine.batch'), File.execute()). Both
fail on main.
