Remember permission approvals across sessions #5083

Description

@ChristoferTiselius

Describe the feature or problem you'd like to solve

When Copilot CLI asks for permission, add an option to remember the approval for future sessions—not just the current session.

Proposed solution

Let me choose whether the saved approval applies to the current repository or globally, and clearly show its scope: a command/subcommand, a specific MCP tool, a file/path, or a URL/domain.
Saved approvals should be easy to inspect and revoke. This would reduce repeated prompts for trusted operations without requiring “allow all” or manual configuration.
