`sudo pacman -U <url>` also fetches `<url>.sig` and failed (404) on
CachyOS: remote packages fall under RemoteFileSigLevel (signature
required) and we don't sign the package. A downloaded file installs under
LocalFileSigLevel (optional): `curl -LO <url> && sudo pacman -U ./…`.

Reported on CachyOS: "Check for Updates → The update downloaded but
couldn't be installed … Permission denied (os error 13) at path
/usr/bin/tauri_current_app…". The app was installed from the Arch package;
Tauri's Linux updater can only replace an AppImage.

With cinny-desktop's new update_install_kind command:
- pacman / deb installs: the toast says the update is available and opens
  Settings → General → App Updates, which shows the package-manager command
  (`sudo pacman -U …pkg.tar.zst`, or the .deb + `sudo apt install`) with
  Copy command and Download package — no Install & Restart that can't work.
  "Copied" only when the clipboard write actually succeeded.
- other distros: a link to the downloads page.
- Windows, AppImage, and desktop builds without the command: unchanged
  in-app update.
- a native "package-managed" refusal shows the same help.

Tests: unit (kinds, commands, refusal detection); in the real client with a
simulated desktop bridge: pacman → toast + Settings command/buttons,
install never attempted; older desktop → in-app flow as before. Unit 1321,
Playwright 26 passed.
