Attachment: WIP: Bug 1875284 - Include host permissions toggle buttons on manifest V3 install prompt dialog.

Like for the patch attached to Bug 1842832, this exploratory patch is meant to let us
collect some more insight about issues/blockers or additional changes we may have to
consider while introducing moz-toggle controls to allow users to opt-in/opt-out to
the manifest version 3 host permissions directly during the install flow.

It is not to be considered the final design nor the final set of changes yet.

Depends on D202212

Screenshots of the install dialog with the private browsing moz-toggle as prototyped in the exploratory patch:

• install dialog for an mv3 extension with all_urls kind of host permission ("<all_ulrs>", ":///*", etc.) along with other host permissions and content script matches (with and without the incognito toggle enabled in the same dialog)

• install fialog for an mv3 extension without an all_urls kind of host permission, but with an host_permission and a content script matched origin too (with and without the incognito toggle enabled in the same dialog)
