used by VS Code and most Electron apps. Features:
- Modern wizard UI (WizardStyle=modern)
- LZMA2/ultra64 solid compression (138.9 MB, down from 143 MB with NSIS)
- Per-user install to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Aryx (no admin needed)
- Optional desktop shortcut, Start Menu group
- Auto-closes running instance before install/uninstall
- Proper Add/Remove Programs integration via AppId
- Launch-after-install option
CI updated to install Inno Setup via Chocolatey on windows-latest.

Replace zip/tar archive distribution with platform-native installers:
- Windows: NSIS installer (.exe) with per-user install to
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Aryx, Start Menu and Desktop shortcuts,
Add/Remove Programs registration, and silent install support
- macOS: DMG disk image (.dmg) with drag-to-Applications experience
via create-dmg
- Linux: Debian package (.deb) with /opt/aryx installation,
/usr/bin/aryx symlink, desktop entry, hicolor icons, and
libsecret-1-0 dependency declaration
Add scripts/create-installer.ts as the platform-dispatching entry
point. Update CI workflow to produce native installers instead of
archives. Add installerAssetName to ReleaseTarget interface.

one executable (sidecar goes from 254 files to 2 files)
Sidecar shrinks from 191 MB / 254 files to 134 MB / 2 files.

Add a GitHub Actions workflow that validates the app on pushes and pull requests, and publishes Windows, macOS, and Linux release assets when a tag is pushed.
Also replace the Windows-only packaging flow with cross-platform Bun scripts for sidecar publishing and Electron packaging so the release job can package each runner natively.

Rename the product, runtime surfaces, sidecar projects, docs, tests, and packaging outputs from Kopaya to Eryx across the repository.
