This PR modifies the folder comparison window to prompt the user when copying selected items from the left to the right side (or vice versa) if the selection includes identical (unchanged) or skipped items.
If the user selects "Yes," only the items with differences will be copied.
If the user selects "No", copy the selected items, and if the selected folder contains skipped items, copy the folder including the skipped items.

This allows you to avoid copying unchanged or skipped files in a folder when copying an entire folder.
