Description
Feature or enhancement
Proposal:
#124704 introduced a prompt when you attempt to quit pdb (ctrl+d). This is fine, but there is no option to allow the original behavior for people that find this inconvenient.
A simple .pdbrc option would be fine.

Research direction
Start with the pdb quit handling introduced by #124704 and review how existing .pdbrc options are parsed. The work is done when users can configure pdb to quit without the prompt, restoring the pre-3.14 behavior, with tests covering the option.
