fix: skip prompting for vars when task if condition fails

Move the prompt for required variables AFTER the if condition check.
This avoids asking the user for input when the task won't run anyway.

The order in RunTask() is now:
1. FastCompiledTask
2. Check required vars early (non-interactive mode only)
3. CompiledTask (resolve dynamic vars)
4. Check if condition → exit early if false
5. Prompt for missing vars (only if task will run)
6. Validate required vars
