Feature request: Check before deleting files in output folder

[sergzin]

Description

I am new to ucc, and found certain options / default behavior a bit confusing.
While building an app I accidentally erased my local git repo.
Perhaps it would be good idea to add some checks before deleting files in output folder.

here is what I did

1. initiated an addon - ucc-gen init --addon-name "demo_addon_for_splunk" --addon-display-name "Demo Add-on for Splunk" --addon-input-name demo_input

2. initiated git repo and added all generated files with git commit

3. in the root folder I have the following files.
   .git
   .venv
   demo_addon_for_splunk

4. ucc build default options for source and config by default will look in the current folder

5. I changed folder to cd demo_addon_for_splunk
   List of files in current folder:
   README.md
   globalConfig.json
   package

6. I thought I dont want to create output in the the same folder, output/ should be created in the parent folder.

7. I run command ucc-gen build -o ../ which erased all files in parent folder without warning

OK, lesson learned.

However, I think ucc should do some basic checks to warn user that he is about to delete some important files. For example checking that .git or .venv folders are present.
