The unreviewed-scripts warning told users to run
npm approve-scripts, which fails on global installs and npx/exec because there's no project package.json to write to. The warnings now checknpm.globaland point global users at the--allow-scriptsflag and theallow-scripts.npmrc setting instead.Covers the install warning (reify-output), the rebuild advisory warning, and the strict-allow-scripts preflight error. Also updates the approve-scripts docs.
