evan 219795cc41 feat(appstore): support reinstalling apps as updates
Track the manifest hash in the installed tree so the catalog can mark apps
as installed or updatable, and swap trees via a backup on reinstall.

Drop the catalog cache: it doubled the failure paths for little gain now
that every open needs a fresh catalog to detect updates.

Use a FAST waveform when redrawing the same screen.

AppStore

Installs new Lua apps from one or more public Xteink repositories.

Bootstrap

Copy this directory to /.apps/AppStore on the SD card. On first launch, AppStore creates repositories.txt from repositories.default.txt.

Repository entries use this format:

XTEINK-REPOSITORIES|1
Name|https://host/path/catalog.txt

AppStore caches each validated catalog on the SD card. Select opens the cache when available; use Refresh to fetch the latest catalog.

Packages download into /.apps/.install-<AppId>, verify declared sizes and SHA-256 hashes, require main.lua, then rename into place. Existing apps are left unchanged; updates, including self-update, are not supported yet.
