feat: namespace install-script approval commands under npm install-scripts

[manzoorwanijk]

Add a namespaced npm install-scripts command that groups the install-script approval operations, following npm's existing npm cache <cmd> / npm token <cmd> convention:

• npm install-scripts approve <pkg>... | --all
• npm install-scripts deny <pkg>... | --all
• npm install-scripts ls (list packages with unreviewed install scripts)

The shipped npm approve-scripts and npm deny-scripts commands keep working as aliases for approve and deny, so this is additive and backwards compatible. The shared AllowScriptsCmd base now dispatches through runMode(mode, args); the standalone commands route through it via static verb. The --allow-scripts-pending flag is only honored by the commands that declare it, so the namespace lists exclusively through ls.

⚠️ Backport to release/v11 failed.

This usually means the cherry-pick had conflicts. Please create a manual backport:

git fetch origin release/v11
git checkout -b backport/v11/9629 origin/release/v11
git cherry-pick -x 0c4dd414f213971c82fe0d620bbf34d7fae25f0d
# resolve any conflicts, then:
git push origin backport/v11/9629

I will try creating a manual backport for this, but my guess is that it will be chaotic 😄
