JakeBreath 7ca84f4fea Point desktop updates at the Gitea release feed
CI / Frontend build & lint (push) Successful in 25s
CI / Backend tests (push) Successful in 2m41s
The updater now resolves the newest non-draft desktop-v* release through the
Gitea API at check time (J621_UPDATE_REPO, lowercase because the API path is
case-sensitive), picks the platform's latest*.yml asset and uses that release
as a generic electron-updater feed; J621_UPDATE_URL still overrides
everything. Verified against the live API: release picked, yml fetched,
artifact HEAD 200.

electron-builder's publish.url is now metadata only (still needed so the
build emits latest*.yml). Docs updated: CD release assets are the feed, the
website /desktop/ feed only matters for installs before 0.1.2.

JakeBreath c992a63b8f Fix e621 images and the setup screen in the desktop shell
e621's CDN answers cross-site image loads that carry no Referer with a 403
(Chromium sends none from a custom-scheme page, then blocks the response as
ORB), so images never appeared in the desktop app. The main process now
attaches an e621 referrer to requests for its hosts.

The shell also answers /api, /admin, /static and /health with a 404 JSON
instead of the SPA fallback — that fallback made the setup screen's empty-URL
connection test report "Connected" against the shell itself. The setup screen
is now desktop-aware (no same-origin option, no "Use this server", clearer
copy), and the smoke test runs against a throwaway profile and covers both
regressions.

JakeBreath e839c84bf0 Make the desktop smoke test mode-aware
The dev path (J621_DEV_SERVER) has the Vite origin and no /setup screen, so
the expectations now follow the mode instead of reporting false failures.

JakeBreath 7c39383655 Wire desktop updates through a generic feed
electron-builder now publishes latest-linux.yml / latest.yml and embeds
app-update.yml plus package-type, so electron-updater runs pacman -U or
dpkg -i through pkexec for packages and updates the per-user NSIS install
without elevation. The app checks only when asked (menu item), asks before
downloading and before installing, and J621_UPDATE_URL overrides the feed
for tests or forks.

deploy/push_desktop.sh builds and publishes the artifacts to
deploy/data/desktop, which the frontend nginx mounts read-only at
/desktop/. Verified detection and up-to-date handling against a local feed
with the packaged Arch build.

JakeBreath cf129714be Add an Electron desktop shell for the SPA
desktop/ serves the normal frontend build over a privileged app://j621
scheme, so localStorage, OPFS, Web Workers, WebCodecs and history routing
behave exactly like Chrome. Development points at the Vite dev server;
`npm run smoke` runs headless Electron and checks the bundled app.

External links open in the system browser, and download navigations
(?download=1 or media URLs) are rerouted through webContents.downloadURL,
since preventing them cancels the download. The setup screen names the
shell's origin when the connection test fails, and the deploy docs list
app://j621 for CORS_ALLOWED_ORIGINS.
