Remove -i options from mv, rm and cp aliases...
Remove -i options from mv, rm and cp aliases This was arguably useful in the terminal, but it means these aliases can't be used from any of the ZMQ frontends. And users familiar with the shell shouldn't find the default (non -i) behaviour surprising. Closes gh-5729, which accidentally included an unrelated change.
