Question

Just hunted down an annoying bug in my CI CD pipeline `pulumi stack output $PROPERTY` adds a newline even with ` non interactive` specified Can a special case be added with just the raw string for non interactive usage I believe the logic is <https github com pulumi pulumi blob 1e235330d6c91d5204687a101bef4d6159ef38a9 pkg cmd pulumi stack output go L76|here>

could you not just trim it ```pulumi stack output $PROPERTY | tr d n ```

trimming the string after the fact is my workaround for now but it s easy to forget to take care of this not to mention potential corner cases generally speaking and IMHO non interactive output should be the norm for tools designed to be automated seeing as we are unconditionally adding a newline in the first place PS i believe `sed z $ s n$ ` is a more accurate solution in a shell context just for completeness sake

to clarify i m thinking about what is likely to be the more common use case here invocation via scripts that reuse these outputs elsewhere or humans checking these outputs interactively IMO a trailing newline could be added at the tail end of all CLI logic if an interactive session is detected decoupling this from core logic just my 2 cents hope you don t mind thanks
