[Bug 817855] [NEW] Install Later (Queue Packages)

[arky]

Public bug reported:

It would be good to have a feature to queue packages to be installed at
a later time.

Use Case
----------- 
I want to install FooBar game. However my current WiFi connection is weak and would take a long time to download.  So I tag this package as install later and when I am home. I will go to the queue panel and click 'Install Now' button.
