Resending patch for 'find -ok'. I re-ran bloatcheck (x86_64).


Subject: [PATCH] find: implement -ok

https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/find.html

   -ok  utility_name  [argument ...] ;
     The -ok primary shall be equivalent to -exec, except that the use
     of a <plus-sign> to punctuate the end of the primary expression
     need not be supported, and find shall request affirmation of the
     invocation of utility_name using the current file as an argument
     by writing to standard error as described in the STDERR section. If
     the response on standard input is affirmative, the utility shall be
     invoked. Otherwise, the command shall not be invoked and the value
     of the -ok operand shall be false.
