Description

Cloned from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1127317
Since foreman-installer (kafo) remembers options, running it multiple times with different values may be confusing for users. We've seen experienced redhatters unsure about options provided.

We've agreed that it would be nice to print out some options overview page in kafo before execution. We can print it everytime and if the terminal is interactive, we can ask to proceed, so users can still cancel.

Since there are many options available, we can print only an overview and offer to see them all (using more or less pipe) together with descriptions we already have in the help screen / man page.

We should provide new global option to skip this overview page somehow for users who like the current behavior.
