2.3.4 returns error exit code for docker compose down with nothing started #9333

Description

@bruderstein

Starting in docker compose 2.3.4, doing a docker compose down with nothing previously started, now returns a non-zero return code - it was previously just a warning.

Steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. Create a docker-compose.yml e.g.
services:
  test:
    image: "debian:latest"
  1. docker compose down -v
  2. Observe the 1 status code - e.g. echo $?

Describe the results you received:
Returns 1 process exit code.

Describe the results you expected:
2.3.3 returns 0.

Additional information you deem important (e.g. issue happens only occasionally):
This is often used in build / test scripts to ensure everything is down and clear first. Erroring in this state is awkward.
