Claude 7fa903ad01 Download sidecar on first launch instead of bundling ...

Major refactor: sidecar is no longer bundled in the installer. Instead,
it's downloaded on first launch with a setup screen offering CPU vs CUDA
choice. This solves the 2GB+ installer size limit and decouples app/sidecar.

Backend:
- New commands: check_sidecar, download_sidecar, check_sidecar_update
- Streaming download with progress events via reqwest
- Added reqwest + futures-util dependencies
- Removed sidecar.zip from bundle resources
- Restored NSIS target (no longer size-constrained)

CI:
- Each platform builds both CPU and CUDA sidecar variants (except macOS: CPU only)
- Sidecar zips uploaded as separate release assets
- Asset naming: sidecar-{os}-{arch}-{variant}.zip

Frontend:
- SidecarSetup.svelte: first-launch setup with CPU/CUDA radio choice,
  progress bar, error/retry handling
- Update banner on launch if newer sidecar version available
- Conditional rendering: setup screen → main app flow
