PixelplanetandCopilot 858293663b feat(install): one-command installer with automatic Steam library entry ...

Users can now install with a single command, either piped or from the
release tarball:

  curl -fsSL .../tools/install.sh | sh
  ./install.sh

Tools/install.sh downloads the latest (or a pinned) ARM64 release, verifies
the published checksum, installs to ~/PixelVRPlayer, and registers
"Pixel VR Player" as a Non-Steam Game by editing shortcuts.vdf through an
embedded binary-KeyValues helper (existing shortcuts are preserved, the file
is backed up, and unsupported files are left untouched). Options cover
--dir, --version, --no-steam, --restart-steam and --uninstall. Upgrades never
touch ~/.config/pixelvr or ~/.cache/pixelvr.

Also:
- package-release.sh ships install.sh and a VERSION file in the tarball.
- The release workflow publishes .sha256 checksums and syntax-checks the
  installer before building.
- Docs describe the one-command path for end users.
