simplewallet: fix error message
What changed, and why it matters
This commit changes a single English sentence in a user prompt. It rewords 'Are you sure to overwrite it?' to 'Are you sure you want to overwrite it?' There is no functional, security, or behavioral change to the wallet software.
No security action required. Treat as a routine wording/UX fix.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The diff modifies one string literal in src/simplewallet/simplewallet.cpp inside an overwrite-confirmation prompt. The call to input_line(), the return value handling via command_line::is_yes(), and all surrounding logic remain identical. No code path, parsing, validation, or cryptographic behavior is affected.
