feat(desktop): Linux AppImage releases and desktop feature parity (#2398)

* feat(electron): add Linux AppImage releases

* ci: cache Linux OpenCode CLI artifacts

* fix(ci): await Linux release inventory check

* fix(electron): add frameless window controls on Linux desktop

Linux AppImages were created without native WM decorations and without
in-app controls, leaving users unable to close the window with a mouse.

Treat Linux like Windows: frameless BrowserWindow plus the existing
WindowsWindowControls header buttons and app-menu entry. macOS keeps
hidden title bar with traffic lights unchanged.

Shared usesFramelessElectronChrome() helper drives main window, mini
chat, header insets, and titlebar controls.

* Linux desktop feature parity: Open in, background start, tray, multi-window (#2392)

* feat(electron): Linux parity for Open in, background start, and tray

Enable Linux desktop feature parity with macOS/Windows: open projects in
the default file manager and discovered apps, XDG autostart with
--background launches, system tray (including minimize-to-tray), and
tray sync from the renderer.

* fix(electron): allow packaged UI protocol navigations on Linux

Prevent openchamber-ui:// navigations from being handed to
shell.openExternal, which fails on Linux and blocked desktop UI flows.

* fix(ui): surface Linux tray settings in settings search

Include isLinux in settings search runtime context so minimize-to-tray
is discoverable on Linux desktop, matching Windows search behavior.

* fix(electron): stop Linux AppImage Waiting-for-OpenCode flicker

Sync updated boot-outcome init scripts to all BrowserWindows after
desktop_hosts_set, and prefer state.initScript on dom-ready so chooser
reloads inject local/ok instead of a stale not-configured outcome.

* fix(desktop): restore Linux AppImage updater feed and error UX (#2396)

Treat missing latest-linux*.yml (404) as no update available instead of a
hard failure, and stop swallowing updater capability/download errors in the
desktop bridge so About/sidebar can show actionable messages.

A loopback-only updater fixture is available for contributor QA of N-to-N+1 AppImage replacement and restart behavior. It is test infrastructure, not a user-configurable update source. See [`scripts/updater-e2e-fixture.md`](./scripts/updater-e2e-fixture.md) for the controlled test procedure. Unit tests cover feed selection, check failures, no-update results, and fixture generation; actual AppImage replacement and restart remains a manual native N-to-N+1 release boundary because it requires executing two packaged versions on each supported architecture.
The package supports macOS, Windows, and Linux desktop features. Linux AppImage builds include in-app window controls and auto-update; system tray and launch-at-login remain macOS/Windows only. Some native discovery helpers are platform-specific. For example, app icon fetching and app filtering currently only work on macOS, while opening files in installed apps and installed-app discovery work on macOS and Windows (Linux returns an empty list without errors).

The macOS menu bar item is enabled by default and can be disabled in General settings. The setting applies after restart; while disabled, Desktop does not create the native tray controller or start the renderer subscriptions, polling, quota refresh, or IPC updates that feed it.
