feat(fuse,core,cli,gui): make folders available offline from the app

The daemon has kept recursive folder pins for a long time, but the app
offered "Available offline" for files only. The context menu, the
details pane and the selection bar now offer it for folders too, and a
pinned folder carries the offline badge in the browser and the launcher.

A folder pin used to download the whole subtree inside the control
request, so a large folder outlasted the client's 120 s read timeout,
and every pinned file was read into memory before it was cached. The
daemon now records the pin, answers at once and downloads on a
background thread as a job the tray and the app show, stopping when the
folder is unpinned or the daemon stops. Pins of files and folders both
go through fetch_content, which streams to disk and skips fresh blobs.
A folder pin is refused while offline instead of looking kept.

A file kept only because a folder above it is pinned has no pin of its
own, and unpinning it silently did nothing. ListDir now reports
pinned_by_folder; the app shows such an entry as available offline with
the toggle greyed out, and the daemon refuses the unpin with a message
naming the folder. Unpinning a folder no longer evicts files that are
pinned on their own.

- **Folders can be made available offline in the app.** The context menu, the details pane and
the selection bar now offer it for folders too. Every file in the folder and its subfolders
downloads in the background with its progress in the tray and the app, and pinned folders carry
the offline badge. A file kept through its folder shows as available offline but cannot be
made online only on its own. `pdfs pin` on a folder now returns at once instead of timing out
on a large folder, and pinned files download to disk instead of into memory.
### Fixed
- **Removing the package left the drive mounted, and deletes there still reached Proton Drive.**
