Panel: SERVICES section becomes APPLICATIONS — shows configured GUI apps with
status dots, launch/stop controls, and "+ Add" button linking to Settings.
Backend: DisplayManager.autostart_apps() launches autostart-enabled GUI apps on
service startup (always-on desktop session). Lifespan calls it before yield.
Settings: new Applications section for managing GUI apps (add/remove/autostart
toggle). General section gains update scanner interval + enable/disable toggle.
Config adds update_check_enabled and update_check_interval fields.

The Xvfb + x11vnc + websockify + noVNC approach defeats the purpose
of a native web desktop environment. Removed all related backend
(display.py, routers/display.py), frontend (xdisplay.js/css, panel
tray polling), and installer (X11 deps) code.

Replace dismissable toast with persistent status row showing a green
dot + "Up to date" with commit hash, or amber dot + "Update available"
with an inline Install button. One or the other is always visible.
