Add checkbox support to dialogs and apply a "Don't show again" checkbox to `ShowGammaRangePromptAsync` #325

I've been using the application for a few days and don't want to modify the registry to unlock the gamma range. I've found the popup quite annoying, so maybe adding basic checkbox support in the dialogs would be a good idea for cases like this.

Unlocking the gamma range is pretty essential to LightBulb's ability to work. Without it, the supported temperature/brightness scales are quite limited, and some configurations can break in very weird ways (e.g. screen turning red). At least half of the issues that users encounter with LightBulb are solved by properly unlocking the gamma range in the registry, even when they think it's not necessary (e.g. #329). For that reason, I think ignoring the prompt is not something that should be encouraged.
