core: in confirm_spawn, the meaning of 'n' and 's' choices are confusing
Before this patch we had: - "no" which gives "failing execution" but the command is actually assumed as succeed. - "skip" which gives "skipping", but the command is assumed to have failed, which ends up with "Failed to start ..." on the console. Now we have: - "fail" which gives "failing execution" and the command is indeed assumed as failed. - "skip" which gives "skipping execution" and the command is assumed as succeed.
