feat(settings): Introduce the "auto-approve request count" feature from Cline

This is the first minor UI feature I've added, so please let me know if I'm missing anything! (translations, organization, etc!)

Please see commits for details

introduce allowedMaxRequests to globalSettingsSchema
update ExtensionState and its context with allowedMaxRequests
implement UI for setting max requests in AutoApproveMenu component
prompt user when auto-approval limit is reached with i18n support
increment consecutiveAutoApprovedRequestsCount and reset upon user approval
add translations for auto-approved request limit reached prompt in multiple languages
add new UI for "auto_approval_max_req_reached" in ChatRowContent
display prompt with title, description, and button for user action

🔧 chore(gitignore): add .idea to .gitignore to exclude IDE-specific files
- remove .idea/workspace.xml to clean up repository
