On install.

  I feel like on update would be better. Answering a yes/no/never isn't that much of an ask, I don't think. And that way you get a chance to use the software before you have to make a decision.

  Or if you want to cover existing users, just ask during the first interactive invocation, when there is no prior user chosen setting (works for new installs too)... pseudocode: choice = no if $brew_prefix/etc/homebrew.yaml: choice = read analytics $brew_prefix/etc/homebrew.yaml else: if interactive-tty and cmd != "--prefix": choice = ask-user "enable anonymous analytics (it helps us!)? Y/N: " write analytics=<choice> $brew_prefix/etc/homebrew.yaml if choice == yes: enable-analytics
