Despite this being piloted in Germany, there's still a way to access and enable this setting (although it only currently works in private windows). Thanks to Michael Veale[1] for bringing this to my attention:

Go to the URL about:config
Set cookiebanners.ui.desktop.enabled ->True
Go to Settings->Privacy, turn on Cookie Banner Blocker.

Consent-O-Matic is a browser extension that recognizes CMP (Consent Management Provider) pop-ups. Since you've told it your cookie preferences, it will autofill those forms when it encounters them—and let you know that it did so. [Edited for brevity]
