nvrl 5048492a83 fix(core,fuse,cli,gui): refuse to mount My files over a folder with files in it
FUSE mounts over a non-empty folder without complaint, so files already
in the My files folder were hidden under the mount: not uploaded, and
back only once the service stopped, so they looked deleted (#67, B277).

- pdfs-core: new `mountpoint` module. `not_empty` lists what is in a
  folder (hidden entries count); `mounted_fs_type` moves here from the
  CLI so the daemon can use it. `MountFailure` gains an optional
  `not_empty` field, which older readers ignore.
- pdfs-fuse: `mount_with` checks the folder before the root fetch and
  before any worker starts. A dead mount is cleared first; one of our
  own live mounts is left to `spawn_session`, as before.
- pdfs-cli: `cmd_daemon` records the folder in the failure record. The
  refusal backs off and retries like any mount failure, so emptying the
  folder is enough.
- pdfs-gui: the status pages explain the refusal, and a dialog offers
  to open the folder or choose another one, once per run of failures.
  The folder picker refuses a folder with files in it.

nvrl 9c30ff8276 docs: publish docs/ to the GitHub wiki and reorganise the user guide
- scripts/publish-wiki.sh publishes every page listed in SECTIONS, copies
  images, writes a sectioned sidebar and footer, and removes stale pages.
  --check fails on links to missing files or headings and on docs pages
  that are neither published nor excluded.
- New wiki.yml runs the check on pull requests and pushes to main, and
  publishes when release.yml calls it or when started by hand.
- Split USER_GUIDE.md into topic pages (files, synced folders, photos,
  sharing, computers, launcher and tray); add Getting started and FAQ.
- Make the COPR repository the main Fedora path, with update and
  uninstall steps for every package type.
- Fix the stale CAPTCHA note in CLI.md, document pdfs unlock and lock,
  and drop the broken AGENTS.md link from CONTRIBUTING.md.

nvrl e66308498b feat(gui,core): opt-in check for new releases
Preferences gets a switch that asks GitHub once a day for the latest
release and shows a banner over the sidebar when it is newer. Off by
default. Packages whose package manager brings updates install the
marker share/proton-drive-linux/managed-updates, which hides the switch.

nvrl c1911ea1de docs: window size, keyring banner and the mailbox password per session
Add the window size and the narrow layout to the 3.5.0 changelog with
B253, document the `window` config field, and explain in the

password after every reboot, and how to keep it unlocked.

nvrl 5c1530b4b9 fix(core,gui): send the release version as the client identity
Every release sent the fixed `external-drive-linux@0.1.0-alpha`. If Proton
ever retires that version, every release fails sign-in at once and no update
can fix it.

- core: APP_VERSION and USER_AGENT follow CARGO_PKG_VERSION
  (`external-drive-linux@<version>-stable`, `proton-drive-linux/<version>`)
- core: `app_version` and `user_agent` in config.json are optional overrides;
  the fixed values older releases stored there read as unset and leave the
  file on the next save, a hand-set value is kept
- gui: the About dialog shows the release, its debug info the identity
  actually sent
- docs: describe the new default and the migration

nvrl 2cca8afba9 docs: describe local-first changes and sync issues for users
The user guide said only writes were queued. Since 3.0.0 creating,
renaming and deleting through the mount return at once too, and changes
Drive refuses become sync issues. Add a section on changes waiting for
Proton Drive: retry, export, discard, and the two cases that land under
another name or place instead of failing.

Troubleshooting covers changes that have not reached other devices yet,
`pdfs sync issues` and the local_first fallback, and names the real
error for symlinks and hard links (EPERM, not EOPNOTSUPP). CONFIGURATION
lists MemoryHigh and the test variables; CLI notes that `sync export`
takes a folder.

nvrl 5e0f30cc2c feat(fuse,core): record namespace changes locally and send them from the queue
A new folder, a new file, a rename or a delete through the mount no longer
waits for Drive: it is recorded locally, the call returns at once, and the
drain sends it as it does offline. `"local_first": false` in config.json
brings back the old path for this release.

Fixes found by the simulation runs on the way:
- B129: a file deleted while its first upload is on the wire is trashed once
  the upload lands.
- B132, B140: files made in a new folder survive a restart; a landed folder
  hands its queued children over in the stored node too.
- B138: a create waits for the rename or trash that frees its name.
- B139: a file closed while its first upload lands keeps its last write.
- B141: a rename a worker holds stays queued, and the newer one waits behind
  it instead of racing it.
- B142: a rename of a file whose create lands meanwhile goes to the uid Drive
  gave it instead of answering EBUSY.
- B143: a create whose read-back fails as the link drops is adopted before
  the next op for it is sent, so its next write is not a conflict copy.

nvrl af869944cf docs: restructure and update documentation for 2.5.0
Split the README into a short front page and task-oriented pages under
docs/: installation, user guide, CLI reference, configuration and
troubleshooting, with an index in docs/README.md. Rewrite RECOVERY.md
around Continue This Backup Here and Restore Folders, and DEVELOPMENT.md
around running, debugging and releasing from source.

Bring ARCHITECTURE.md up to date with the read path, push events, the
thread map, conflict copies and the machine profile, and move the feature
design notes there. Collect planned work in ROADMAP.md. Link the threat
model from SECURITY.md and the translation rules from CONTRIBUTING.md.

Add scripts/publish-wiki.sh, which mirrors the user pages to the GitHub
wiki with rewritten links and only pushes with --push.
