feat(update): stable/beta update channel; stable follows release tags (#684)

Browse Source 
Adds auto_update.channel: stable follows the newest vX.Y.Z release tag
(detached HEAD; pre-releases and other tags ignored), beta follows main as
before. Nothing ever moves a device backwards: a checkout newer than the
newest release keeps following main (or stays put when detached) until a
release contains its commit. Legacy configs migrate to stable when they
reach a release. Update Code, the weekly updater's preflight, and the
verifier's rollback (back to old_ref: branch or detached release) all
honour the channel. General tab Update Channel select, GET/POST
/api/v3/system/update-channel, release-aware Overview banner and Tools git
panel. New installs default to stable.

Rig fix (ledpi): /system/check-update reports update_available: false when
the channel's action is none (a detached HEAD newer than the newest
release), matching Update Code; the Tools panel no longer calls every
detached HEAD "a release".

Merged with main through #687 (heartbeat verifier, #683 login, #688
plugin_catalog, #685 Tailwind build).

- Install community plugins straight from a GitHub URL via
**Install from GitHub** on the same tab.
### Keep LEDMatrix Up to Date
- **Update Code** on the **Overview** tab installs the newest version, and a
banner at the top of the page says when one is available.
- **General → Automatic Updates** does it once a week, overnight, with a
health check that undoes an update that breaks the device.
- **General → Update Channel** picks which version that is. **Stable** (the
default) installs releases, which have been tested and have release
notes. **Beta** installs the newest code as soon as it is written, before
it is released: fixes arrive sooner, and so do new problems.
- Switching to Stable never installs an older version than the one you
have. If your device is already newer than the latest release (which is
normal if it was set up or updated from the newest code), it keeps
getting the newest code until the next release includes it, then follows
releases from there. The General tab says when this is the case.
