A friend's in-app update failed ten times ("error sending request for
url (…nsis.zip)") against a busy Gitea before the 11th worked.
- check_for_update / install_update retry transport errors (Reqwest,
Network, ReleaseNotFound) with 3 s / 8 s / 15 s backoff — four tries
per click. Signature or install errors fail at once, never masked.
- Every request gets a 600 s timeout; reqwest has none by default, so a
stalled connection could leave the UI on "installing" forever.
- Download and install are separate steps so a retry never re-installs.
- `lotus-update-progress` events (downloading %, retrying + wait,
installing) drive the new progress text in Settings.
- Errors are prefixed `check:` / `download:` / `install:` so the UI says
which step failed (it used to call a failed download "Update check
failed").
- Adds tokio (time feature only; already in the tree via tauri).
- Bump cinny to 568f218f (the matching UI).
