This PR removes the explicit check for the REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES permission when opening .apk files on Android.

When firing an ACTION_VIEW Intent for an APK, the Android system (Package Installer) handles the installation flow, including prompting the user to allow installation from unknown sources if necessary. There is no need for the plugin to pre-check this permission and block the intent.
