Pull Request Check List

Resolves: #10617

• Added tests for changed code.
• Updated documentation for changed code.

We have probably reached a point where installation without re-resolving is stable enough to make it the default. Making it the default may reveal new bugs but on the other side #10617 (comment) shows that the old way has its own bugs.

Summary by Sourcery

Change the default behavior of the installer to disable re-resolving dependencies by default and update associated configuration, documentation, and tests.

Enhancements:

• Set installer.re-resolve default to false in configuration and installation logic

Documentation:

• Update documentation to reflect the new default and note the version change in configuration and dependency specification guides

Tests:

• Adjust console command tests to expect installer.re-resolve default as false
