Add Option to Display SubShell Above/inline of Warp Prompt #4680

Describe the solution you'd like?

Warp Team,

I would love to have the option to display in my prompt that I am in a SubShell so that I can see what context I am currently using in the given SubShell. This would be especially helpful for those of us who are popping SubShells with specific commands, i.e. when creating a subshell through AWS-Vault to assume roles, or if someone is operating in a network namespace.

A few options I had for display could be:

(SubShell) $ username@warp ~

(SubShell: <command to get subshell>)
$ username@warp ~

This would be extremely helpful to me because I constantly am changing subshells throughout my workday to access various cloud resources, and it can be confusing without running additional command(s) to remember which context I would be in at that given time

Thanks Team!

hey @BatteryRage Thanks for submitting this request. As a possible stopgap, when you are in a subshell, Warp shows this in the UI at all times on the top left corner of the session.
