Copilot CLI hangs on sudo commands -- does not prompt for password

[ayoubelouardi]

Describe the bug

When running commands that require sudo privileges (e.g., installing packages), Copilot CLI hangs indefinitely and does not prompt the user to enter their password. This makes it impossible to complete tasks that require elevated permissions.

Affected version

0.0.392 - cefb35e

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Launch Copilot CLI.
2. tell copilot to Run a command that requires sudo, such as:

   sudo apt install curl
   

Expected behavior

Copilot CLI should detect the password prompt and allow the user to input their password interactively.

Actual Behavior:
The CLI hangs indefinitely without displaying the password prompt or accepting input.
