feat(pack): confirm "Always" to install all plugins #35733

Problem: First clean start with config containing multiple
  `vim.pack.add()` calls requires to explicitly confirm each one.
  Although usually a rare occurrence, it still might be tedious.

Solution: Add a third choice during installation confirmation that
  approves current and all next installs within current session. It is
  reset after session restart.
