Allow updating a package from the installed packages list

[Gabriel Dufresne (GabrielDuf)]

This pull request updates the context menus for installed packages. The main changes include adding manual update options to the installed packages page, and removing the useless per-package auto-update toggle from the updates page, and cleaning up related logic. These changes streamline the user experience for updating packages and clarify the auto-update workflow.

Installed Packages Page Improvements:

• Added "Update" and "Update as administrator" options to the context menu for installed packages, allowing users to manually trigger updates directly from the installed packages list. The menu dynamically enables or disables these options based on whether an update is available and user permissions. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]

Software Updates Page Simplification:

• Removed the "Update this package automatically" menu item and related logic from the software updates page, eliminating the per-package auto-update toggle from the context menu. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]

Localization Cleanup:

• Removed the unused "Update this package automatically" string from the English language resources.
