Add option to not invoke "⚡️ Ask Warp AI" in certain contexts

Describe the solution you'd like?

Can we toggle off the "⚡️ Ask Warp AI" feature? Or, can I control when it appears:

• OK for it to appear if I start a command with the # character.
• OK for it to appear if I start editing and delete the entire line with Ctrl-U (for instance).
• NOT ok for it to appear if I navigate to the beginning of the line and the first character I hit is #, maybe a space after the # invokes the Ask Warp AI.
• NOT ok for it to appear if I use '##' at the beginning of the line (alternative idea)

It would be awesome to have some granularity on the control of its appearance, or have some exceptional way to attenuate its invocation.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

It's annoying to have the "⚡️ Ask Warp AI" feature pop over text (a block from a prior command) when I'm not actually invoking it. Hitting enter and just running the command works, but it makes for an akward user experience.

Sometimes I'll start writing a command, for example

grep -A1 "

And I can't recall the key to search for (suspend your disbelief for a moment, this is a simple example) and have to go and find some piece of relevant information. I could open another tab or pane, but I may decide to just open an editor in the current shell and find what I'm looking for. I typically will hit Ctrl-A to put the cursor at the beginning of the line, and then use # to make the command a comment, and save it to my history with 'Enter'. This is cool because I can use Ctrl-R or ⬆️ (up arrow) to resume editing my command. It's also super ingrained into how I work with terminals.

The annoying thing is that the "⚡️Ask Warp AI" helper gets invoked after I put my cursor at the beginning of the line when I'm just trying to comment and save my wip command.
