dotenv: add agree-once improvement to confirmation prompt (#8729)

* dotenv: add possibility to agree once for a given .env file

* refactor: fix code style

* Use :A modifier instead of readlink. Thanks Aloxaf

* Use grep and clean up allowed list check logic

* Simplify and reorder file; change default allowed list path

* Add new feature to README

* Make sure ZSH_CACHE_DIR is defined

* Resolve symlinks in $PWD before storing in allowed list

 Storing configuration in the environment is one of the tenets of a [twelve-factor app](https://www.12factor.net). Anything that is likely to change between deployment environments, such as resource handles for databases or credentials for external services, should be extracted from the code into environment variables.

 `export` is optional. This format works as well:

 You can even mix both formats, although it's probably a bad idea.

 ### ZSH_DOTENV_PROMPT
 
 Set `ZSH_DOTENV_PROMPT=false` in your zshrc file if you don't want the confirmation message.
+You can also choose the `Always` option when prompted to always allow sourcing the .env file
+in that directory. See the next section for more details.
+
+### ZSH_DOTENV_ALLOWED_LIST
+
+The default behavior of the plugin is to always ask whether to source a dotenv file. There's
+a **Y**es, **N**o, and **A**lways option. If you choose Always, the directory of the .env file
+will be added to an allowed list. If a directory is found in this list, the plugin won't ask
+for confirmation and will instead source the .env file directly.
+
+This allowed list is saved by default in `$ZSH_CACHE_DIR/dotenv-allowed.list`. If you want
+to change that location, change the `$ZSH_DOTENV_ALLOWED_LIST` variable, like so:
+
+```zsh
+# in ~/.zshrc, before Oh My Zsh is sourced:
+ZSH_DOTENV_ALLOWED_LIST=/path/to/dotenv/allowed/list
+```
+
+This file is just a list of directories allowed, separated by a newline character. If you want
+to disallow a directory, just edit this file and remove the line for the directory you want to
+disallow.

 This plugin only sources the `.env` file. Nothing less, nothing more. It doesn't do any checks. It's designed to be the fastest and simplest option. You're responsible for the `.env` file content. You can put some code (or weird symbols) there, but do it on your own risk. `dotenv` is the basic tool, yet it does the job.
