The manifest gains `assets` (linux-x64 / windows-x64 → archive URL);
top-level `url` stays the Linux tarball for 0.2.1 installs. A Windows-
only test applies a bsdtar zip over a running exe (PING.EXE copy) and
checks it is parked as .old and swept next start; Linux-layout tests
(exec bits, symlinks) skip on Windows.

- Strip the tarball's top-level folder; stage inside the install root
(same filesystem) and swap with full rollback; keep file modes.
- Semver prerelease ordering (1.2.3-rc1 < 1.2.3).
- UpdateController: background check, download with progress, apply,
restart; required-update wording for newer protocols; Check now.
- update.sh/update.bat in the bundle; Windows apply path (untested).

release.sh writes updates/manifest.json at release time (predictable
asset URL) — no CI commit-back, no push-token problem, no detached
checkout dance. release_publish.sh is create-release + upload only.
Manifest sha256 now optional; updater skips verification with a note
when absent (HTTPS + gzip CRC cover the realistic cases). Fixed the
repo-URL sed keeping a .git suffix (caught by a worktree dry run).
Updater tests: 8 (sha-less manifest flow added).
Updater: watch-together --upgrade checks updates/manifest.json,
downloads the tarball, verifies sha256, applies over the live
install (extract-temp + delete-first move-over; rename-safe on
Linux while running). Zero Flutter imports, 7 tests incl.
stub-server flows. Version stamped via --dart-define=APP_VERSION
in package script. Warns (never silently jumps) on proto mismatch.
Roadmap: phases retired as tracker (history in git log), now flat
Built/Backlog/Epics/Deferred; Jellyfin next feature, transcode
never; updater expansion stays an epic. Endpoint publishing
(manifest + release tarball) is user-owned.
