On Ubuntu 20.04, according to the instruction

I use the following settings in my Emacs init file:
```
;;Bootstrap straight
(defvar bootstrap-version)
(let ((bootstrap-file
(expand-file-name "straight/repos/straight.el/bootstrap.el"
user-emacs-directory))
(bootstrap-version 5))

(goto-char (point-max))
(eval-print-last-sexp)))
(load bootstrap-file nil 'nomessage))
;; Install use-package via straight
(straight-use-package 'use-package)

(setq straight-use-package-by-default t) ; straight's equivalent of
`use-package-always-ensure'.
```
Now, I want to install multiple package hosted in recipe repositories
(such as MELPA) as shown below with only one (straight-)use-package
command, is it possible?
```
(use-package flycheck)
(use-package lsp-mode)
(use-package dash)
(use-package posframe)
(use-package s)
(use-package ein)
(use-package smartparens)
(use-package valign)
(use-package multi-term)
```
Based on the code snippets at
<https://github.com/flakyhermit/emacs.d/blob/6b488895071e980433facf648f482974526d6a13/init.el#L22>,
I figured out the following solution with `straight-use-package'
command:
(defvar package-list)
(setq package-list '(
flycheck lsp-mode dash posframe
s ein smartparens valign
multi-term
))
(mapc (lambda(package-name)
(straight-use-package package-name)) package-list)
But I still don't know the corresponding implementation with
`use-package' command.
