New VerbosePkgLists option

If enabled, displays package lists for upgrade, sync and remove
operations formatted as a table. Falls back to default list display if
insufficient terminal columns are available.

Example output:

:: Starting full system upgrade...
:: Replace libjpeg with testing/libjpeg-turbo? [Y/n]
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
