Option to disable automatic request of permissions in macOS #462

Description

@GaurangTandon

Since v2.3.0 nut.js automatically requests permissions for screen recording and accessibility. I believe this is a useful addition for many use cases. However,

  1. many apps do not need screen recording permissions, so the extra permission dialog is unexpected.
  2. many apps request permissions at a specific time, not necessarily when the app starts. For example, the permission is requested before/after user authentication.

I have switched to v2.2.0 for now. I might be wrong, but I could not find an option to disable the automatic permission request dialog box in macOS in v2.3.0. So I am posting this issue as a "Issue: Question". If such an option does not exist, please consider providing it.
