Description

### Describe the bug

Solana Sign and Send triggers the Permissions screen, no matter if I'm already connected.
The Sign and Send request is never displayed

### Expected behavior

- If we are already connected to the dapp, we shouldn't trigger the Permissions screen.
- We should see the Sign and Send SOL screen

### Screenshots/Recordings

2. Go to https://metamask.github.io/test-dapp-solana/latest/
3. Connect an Account with Solana network permissions
4. Click Sign Transaction --> see the tx is correctly displayed
5. Click Sign and Send Transaction --> see permissions screen is triggered
6. Accept again the permissions
7. See nothing else happens

Research direction

Reproduce the flow in the inner browser with the Solana test dapp at metamask.github.io/test-dapp-solana/latest/, following the listed connection, Sign Transaction, and Sign and Send steps. Trace the Wallet API Sign and Send path and compare its permission handling with Sign Transaction. Done means an already connected dapp opens the Sign and Send SOL screen without another permission prompt.
