Merge pull request 'feat(extension): in-app update prompt + v1.0.9 (#1489)' (#231) from dev into main

The extension is installed per-instance from the operator's FC host, so Firefox's
static update_url can't apply (each instance has a different host) and updates
were fully manual. Add a self-hosted-friendly update surface that reuses the
existing public GET /api/extension/manifest ({version, latest_url, sha256}):

- lib/api.js: getExtensionManifest().
- background.js: checkForUpdateInfo() compares the instance's latest published
  version against runtime.getManifest().version (dotted-numeric compare so
  1.0.10 > 1.0.9); CHECK_UPDATE message handler; refreshUpdateBadge() sets a
  toolbar badge via browser.action; a daily browser.alarms check plus on
  startup/installed. New 'alarms' permission (non-prompting).
- popup: an 'Update available — vX' banner with an Update button that opens the
  signed XPI (web root, /api stripped like OPEN_ARTIST_PAGE) → Firefox's native
  install prompt. Never blocks the popup on a failed check.

No backend changes (endpoint already exists). Bump 1.0.8→1.0.9 so this ships;
from here on updates surface themselves instead of needing a manual reinstall.

+"""Native Pixiv client — the Pixiv adapter's read path.
+
+Pixiv has a real (if unofficial) API: the mobile app API gallery-dl drives
+(`PixivAppAPI`). Per the downloader ground rule — gallery-dl is the
+known-working base — this client mirrors gallery-dl 1.32.5's request profile
+EXACTLY: the same iOS app headers on every request, the same OAuth
+refresh-token dance against oauth.secure.pixiv.net (X-Client-Time +
+X-Client-Hash), and the same `/v1/user/illusts` walk paginated by `next_url`.
+Deviating from that profile is how the SubscribeStar/Patreon spikes broke, so
+any change here should be diffed against gallery-dl's extractor first.
+
+Feed shape (characterized from gallery-dl 1.32.5, extractor/pixiv.py):
+  - `GET /v1/user/illusts?user_id=<id>` returns `{"illusts": [work...],
+    "next_url": "https://app-api...?user_id=..&offset=30" | null}`.
+  - Pagination: re-issue the SAME endpoint with `next_url`'s query params. The
+    query string doubles as our resumable page cursor (re-fetching it re-serves
+    the same page — the ingest-core resume contract).
+  - A work carries id/title/type(illust|manga|ugoira)/caption(HTML)/
+    create_date(ISO+09:00)/tags[{name,translated_name}]/user/page_count/
+    x_restrict/series/total_view/total_bookmarks/meta_single_page/meta_pages.
+  - Files: multi-page → meta_pages[].image_urls.original; single page →
+    meta_single_page.original_image_url; ugoira → `/v1/ugoira/metadata` zip
+    (600x600 → 1920x1080 URL swap, gallery-dl's default non-original mode).
+
+`campaign_id` for Pixiv is the numeric user id (extracted from the source URL
+by `user_id_from_url` — no network resolver needed).
+
+Gated works: pixiv serves a `https://s.pximg.net/common/images/limit_*.png`
+placeholder as the "original" when a work is blocked for this account
+(sanity-level filter, my-pixiv lock, deleted). gallery-dl's fallback for those
+is a web-AJAX scrape that needs PHPSESSID browser cookies — FC stores only the
+OAuth refresh token, so (exactly like our previous gallery-dl configuration,
+which warned "No PHPSESSID cookie set") those works are skipped, via the
+post_is_gated seam. Auth failures are loud (rotate the refresh token); a
+response missing the fields we depend on is DRIFT (update this client).
+
+FC runs on a plain-HTTP homelab; nothing here uses a secure-context Web API.

+"""Native Pixiv media downloader — the Pixiv counterpart to
+patreon_downloader / subscribestar_downloader.
+
+Given a normalized Pixiv work and its resolved `MediaItem`s
+(pixiv_client.extract_media), download the originals to gallery-dl's on-disk
+layout (so pre-cutover gallery-dl downloads are recognized on disk and not
+re-fetched), write the post-first sidecars the importer consumes, and report
+per-media outcomes.
+
+On-disk layout (matches FC's gallery-dl pixiv config, PLATFORM_DEFAULTS:
+base-directory `<images_root>/<artist_slug>/pixiv` + `directory:
+["{category}"]` + filename `{id}_{title[:50]}_{num:>02}.{extension}`):
+
+    <images_root>/<artist_slug>/pixiv/pixiv/<id>_<title50>_<NN>.<ext>
+
+— note the intentional DOUBLE `pixiv` segment: gallery-dl appended
+`{category}` under a base-directory that already ended in the platform name,
+and tier-2 disk-skip parity requires reproducing that exactly. The layout is
+FLAT (no per-post directory), so the post-first record is `_post_<id>.json`
+in the same directory (the id suffix prevents the collisions a bare
+`_post.json` would have here; phase 3 receives explicit post_record_paths, so
+the name is a convention, not a discovery key).
+
+Simpler than Patreon (no Mux/yt-dlp video branch) — the one special file is
+the ugoira frame zip, downloaded as-is; FC's archive-containment import
+extracts the frames, and the frame DELAYS ride the post record (the zip
+carries none — a future ugoira→video conversion needs them).
+
+PURE: no DB; the seen-skip is an injected predicate. FC runs on a plain-HTTP
+homelab; nothing here uses a secure-context Web API.

+Deterministic heuristic: when a post's TITLE explicitly declares work-in-progress

+applied to that post's images — a cheap, high-precision complement to the
+image-based ML ``wip`` head. WIP images are excluded from the Explore/gallery
+browse (see gallery_service ``excluded_system_tags``), so honouring the artist's
+own label keeps unfinished pieces out of the main browse right at import.
+
+Precision over recall — a false WIP tag HIDES a finished post — so matching is
+token-anchored: ``swipe`` / ``wiped`` / ``wiping`` never trip it (a letter on the
+boundary blocks the match).
+
+Sync-only: both consumers (the importer and the backfill Celery task) run on a
+sync Session. Application is idempotent-additive (ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING) and
+stamps a distinct ``image_tag.source`` so a later pass can tell where a wip tag
