ChuckBuildsandClaude Sonnet 5 aec1368d63 feat(web): update flow installs changed Python dependencies automatically ...

The in-app updater (Update Now banner -> git_pull action) stashed, pulled,
and purged plugins - but never touched Python dependencies. Any release
adding a package (e.g. this branch's flask-compress, which lives in
web_interface/requirements.txt) silently required an SSH session and a
manual pip install that most users will never do.

- git_pull now records HEAD before pulling; after a successful pull it
  diffs old..new and, if requirements.txt or web_interface/requirements.txt
  changed, installs exactly those via _pip_install_requirements - the same
  vetted root-visible sudo path the Tools-tab buttons use (with its
  existing graceful fallback when the sudo wrapper isn't configured).
  Results are appended to the update toast; a failure points the user at
  the Tools-tab button instead of failing the whole update.
- install_base_requirements (Tools tab) now also installs
  web_interface/requirements.txt - previously it only covered the root
  file, so web-only dependencies were unreachable from the UI entirely.

No install happens when the pull was already-up-to-date or when no
requirements file changed, so routine updates stay fast.
