The Android app updates itself from our Gitea releases; feed cards fade in instead of bouncing

- API: GET /app/android/latest reads the latest Gitea release (ANDROID_RELEASES_URL, optional token for a
  private repo) with the APK's SHA-256 from SHA256SUMS; GET /app/android/apk/:name streams that APK.
- App (modules/updater): downloads in the background, checks the SHA-256, and installs through
  PackageInstaller: quietly once when leaving the app (Android 12+), otherwise from the feed banner or
  Settings > App version. F-Droid builds leave it out and drop the install permissions.
- CI: the release notes come from the fastlane changelog; the app shows the part above ---.
- Settings: Create-account and Link Spotify buttons for Last.fm and ListenBrainz.
