Current evaluation

Enhancement: when starting a remote build whose name already exists, prompt the user to recover or cancel-and-recreate instead of erroring. Triaged by a maintainer; last activity 215 days ago, no fix in code yet.

Suggested action: keep open

Reason: The issue is labelled Status: Triaged and Type: Enhancement, and was filed by a maintainer (lengau) with a linked internal ticket (CRAFT-2557), so it has been assessed and acknowledged. The code still errors out on an existing build name (no recover/cancel prompt in remote.py or remotebuild.py), so it remains applicable and should stay open.

Issue body

### What needs to get done When starting a new remote build, if there already exists a remote build with the same name (meaning the same project), ask the user if they want to recover the build or cancel it and create a new build. ### Why it needs to get done Currently we simply error out in this situation.
