KPackageKit currently cannot really handle batch installing more than one package at a time. Currently one has to pass --install-from-name for every package that they want installed. Ideally we should only have to pass that flag once, then pass an entire list of packages for it to install.

KPK also lacks a call to refresh the package list (compare to install-package --update)

The goal here is basically to kill install-package, now the goal is to change all calls to qapt-batch, a drop-in C++ replacement for install-package developed for this purpose.
