Add --no-input to hide the input section (#4210)

Close #1396
 
You can't type in queries in this mode, and the only way to trigger an
fzf search is to use `search(...)` action.

  # Click header to trigger search
  fzf --header '[src] [test]' --no-input --layout reverse \
      --header-border bottom --input-border \
      --bind 'click-header:transform-search:echo ${FZF_CLICK_HEADER_WORD:1:-1}'
