Lotus CIandClaude Opus 5.5 261d7852cb fix(updater): package installs update through their package manager
On CachyOS the in-app update failed with "Permission denied (os error 13)
at path /usr/bin/tauri_current_app…": the app was installed from the
Arch package, and Tauri's Linux updater can only replace an AppImage — for
anything else it tries to write next to the binary in /usr/bin.

- update_install_kind command: "in-app" on Windows and for an AppImage
  ($APPIMAGE set); on Linux package installs "pacman" (ID/ID_LIKE arch:
  Arch, CachyOS, Manjaro, EndeavourOS…), "deb" (debian/ubuntu and
  derivatives) or "manual". The web UI shows the matching update command.
- install_update refuses up front on a package install
  ("install: package-managed (…)") instead of downloading the whole
  update and failing at the last step.

Tests: CachyOS/Arch → pacman; Ubuntu/Debian/Mint → deb; Fedora/unknown →
manual; AppImage and Windows → in-app.
