The .dependencies_installed marker was an empty file, so adding a new
package to requirements.txt (e.g. astral in ledmatrix-weather v2.3.0)
never triggered a pip re-install on existing installs — the file existed
so the check returned early.
The marker now stores a SHA-256 hash of requirements.txt. On every plugin
load, the loader compares the current hash to the stored one; a mismatch
(or missing marker) triggers pip install and writes the new hash.
store_manager._install_dependencies() also writes the hash marker after a
store install/update so the loader skips a redundant pip run on next boot.
