A faster terminal workspace and safer updates

Terminal navigation became more immediate, AO gained install-aware updates, and macOS could stay awake while work was running.

Faster navigation across terminals and sessions #1278

Terminal layout, sidebar behavior, and mobile navigation were tightened so switching between sessions feels immediate.

Updates that understand how AO was installed #1156

AO can detect how it was installed, show an available update, and verify versions through its maintenance tools.

Keep macOS awake during long-running work #1119

macOS can stay awake while AO is running so long agent tasks are not interrupted by system sleep.
