Research direction
Start by locating the CLI argument handling for the existing copilot -p "prompt" flow. Add support for the proposed copilot -f /prompt.md form, using the file contents as the prompt, and verify that large prompts and special characters are passed correctly.

Proposed solution
Currently, you are allow to do copilot -p "prompt"
If prompts are large, or contain quotes or other special characters, it would be better to have the prompt in a file and pass it to the cli (ex copilot -f /prompt.md) instead of having to use cat or other commands.
