#34084: Automatically log user in after installation

On my core development installs I run a custom `wp-content/install.php`
file which, among other things, logs me in and redirects me to `/wp-admin`
immediately after installing WordPress. It's '''really''' nice to be
dumped straight into the admin area after hitting the 'Install WordPress'
button.
Opening this ticket up for discussion about whether core should do this by
default.
What problems could it cause? Will it increase the likelihood of the admin
not remembering their password? Will it avoid cause annoyances for users
who use password managers because you're skipping the login form? Anything
else to consider?
