feat(install): support Raspberry Pi OS Bookworm (Python 3.11) alongside Trixie (3.13) (#689)

Browse Source 
The installer and scripts/check_system_compatibility.sh share one set of OS rules (scripts/install/lib_os.sh): Bookworm (Debian 12, Python 3.11) and Trixie (Debian 13, Python 3.13) are supported, python3 older than 3.11 stops the install before anything changes, and dhcpcd gets a warning with directions. setcap targets /usr/bin/python3, the apt fallback honours the requirement floors, and the desktop check no longer misreads under pipefail. CI runs the unit and plugin-safety suites on 3.11 and 3.13 (tooling jobs on 3.13); mypy targets 3.11.

## Unreleased
### Install
- Raspberry Pi OS **Bookworm** (Debian 12, Python 3.11) is supported,
alongside **Trixie** (Debian 13, Python 3.13). The installer used to stop
on anything but Trixie. Which releases and Pythons are accepted now lives
in one place, `scripts/install/lib_os.sh`, which `first_time_install.sh`
and `scripts/check_system_compatibility.sh` both read, so the two can no
longer disagree (the compatibility check called Bookworm an error, and
still accepted Python 3.10, which the rgbmatrix bindings refuse). An
unsupported system gets plain directions to the right image; a `python3`
older than 3.11 stops the install before anything changes.
- The installer says up front when the Pi runs dhcpcd instead of
NetworkManager, and how to switch back: the web page's WiFi tab and the
`LEDMatrix-Setup` hotspot need NetworkManager. Not fatal, and it does not
switch the network stack itself, since that can cut the SSH session.
- The desktop check no longer misses a desktop install: `dpkg -l | grep -q`
under `pipefail` read a match as "not found".
- `cap_sys_nice` is set on the interpreter the services run
(`/usr/bin/python3`); it preferred `/usr/bin/python3.13` whenever it
existed.
- The Step 7 dependency fallback (`scripts/install_dependencies_apt.py`) no
longer accepts apt packages older than the pins -- Bookworm's Flask 2.2.2
and Pillow 9.4, Trixie's Flask 3.1.1 and Pillow 11.1. The floors are read
from `web_interface/requirements.txt`, and pip is asked for `Pillow`, not
`PIL`.
- CI runs the unit and plugin-safety suites on Python 3.11 and 3.13 (was
3.12); mypy targets 3.11.
