Subject: [PATCH] fix(core): prompt for password once when installing
 recommended apps

Wire the password-confirmation interceptors into the recommendedapps
entry point and switch the installer to a single bulk enable call so
the strict password confirmation on enableApps is satisfied.

Fixes #60068
