#53857: port -N reclaim does not remove any ports

--------------------+-----------------
 When reclaim is started in non-interactive mode with `sudo port -N
 reclaim`, the command will check for "unnecessary unrequested ports", but
 will not remove any of them.

 {{{
 $ sudo port -N reclaim
 --->  Checking for unnecessary unrequested ports
 Found unrequested ports without requested dependents: qt5-qt3d, grep,
 grep, gmake, py27-sphinx, py27-sphinx, [...]
 --->  Checking for inactive ports
 --->  Building list of distfiles still in use
 --->  Searching for unused distfiles
 --->  Scanning binaries for linking errors
 --->  No broken files found.
 }}}

 I expected the command to remove all listed ports without asking me for
 confirmation, similar to the behavior of commands like `port -N uninstall`
 that assume 'yes' as answer in non-interactive mode.
