feat(operations): fresh platform-operations implementation

Full rewrite of the installer (incl. the finish step), self-update pipeline,
settings store, cron webhook, dashboard/bootstrap surface, environment
manager, wizard login, config endpoint and shared helpers. Byte-compatible
public interfaces and observable behavior, including documented legacy
quirks; verified by the pilot behavioral suite and the full test suite.
