📚 Description

When performing an initial load of a page, there are two navigation events that happen, first when the router plugin initialises, and then after all plugins run (to give a chance for plugins to register middleware).

This causes a jump of the scroll to the top and then after all plugins run, it restores the scroll position. However, this is unaesthetic and a bad user experience.

Rather than adjusting the scrollBehavior itself, we can set window.history.scrollRestoration to auto until these first two navigations have taken place.

This supersedes some of #24960 but by no means all. (cc: @bernhardberger)
