[packagekit] Multiple Package installation UI

[Adrien BUSTANY]

I also liek the idea I saw on an opensuse screenshot some time ago : a 
column which shows the packages to be installed and removed (== 
transaction summary)... I'm not sure all the package managers can handle 
searching while installing.

Cheers
Adrien
