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

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).
