fix: request install-packages permission at runtime before APK install

Android 8+ requires canRequestPackageInstalls() to return true even when
REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES is declared in the manifest. Add permission_handler
and check/request Permission.requestInstallPackages before downloading;
redirects user to Settings if not granted and shows a clear error message.
