Pull request overview
This PR adds a new GitHub CLI–backed package manager to UniGetUI’s package engine so users can search GitHub repositories, track them, and download/install latest release assets via gh, while also reducing noisy icon-download errors.
Changes:
- Introduces a new
UniGetUI.PackageEngine.Managers.GitHubClimanager with release search, release-asset selection (arch-aware), download, and optional auto-install behavior. - Wires the new manager into the UI/settings page and package engine manager registry.
- Improves icon download handling (Content-Type handling + less noisy network/I/O error logging) and bumps build/version metadata.

Any user suspected of farming GitHub activity with crypto purposes will get banned. Submitting broken code wastes the contributors' time, who have to spend their free time reviewing, fixing, and testing code that does not even compile breaks other features, or does not introduce any useful changes. I appreciate your understanding.
