apparently it has a hidden --nointeractive option. the following patch should
handle it:

although this does appear to unconditionally upgrade the database without
presenting an opportunity to back it up...
there also may be other zmupdate.pl codepaths which still prompt; the
--nointeractive option seems only partially implemented, though that may only
be when upgrading from really old versions of zoneminder.
