Simplifies installation by removing all interactive Proxmox configuration prompts.
The script now simply copies .env.example to .env and instructs users to edit it manually.
This approach:
- Eliminates complex interactive prompting logic
- Gives users full control over configuration
- Reduces installation complexity
- Avoids potential input validation issues
Users now need to manually edit /opt/pulse-proxmox/.env after installation.

Simplifies install-pulse.sh by removing all branch installation capabilities to reduce script complexity and maintainability burden.
Removed:
- --branch command line argument
- prompt_for_branch_selection() function
- Branch validation and handling logic
- "Test a feature branch" menu options
- Branch-specific installation and update paths
- Branch status reporting
The script now only supports stable version tag installations, making it more focused and easier to maintain.

The script was looking for pulse-3.12.1.tar.gz but the actual release
asset is named pulse-v3.12.1.tar.gz (with 'v' prefix). This caused
404 "Not Found" errors during tarball downloads.
Fixed all download URLs to use the correct filename format that matches
the actual release asset names created by the release script.

Added verification to ensure downloaded tarball files are valid gzip
archives before attempting extraction. This will help diagnose issues
where downloads return HTML error pages or corrupt data instead of
the expected tarball.
The script now provides detailed error information including file type
and hex dump of downloaded content when verification fails.

Extended the CSS file recovery logic to fresh tarball installations,
not just updates. The script now attempts to recover missing or
corrupted CSS files during initial installations instead of failing
and falling back to git clone.
This ensures consistent CSS recovery behavior for both new installations
and updates, preventing installation failures due to tarball extraction
issues.

Enhanced the CSS verification to actively recover the CSS file if it's
missing, empty, or corrupted after tarball extraction. The script now
attempts direct extraction of just the CSS file from the release tarball
as a fallback mechanism.
This ensures that even if the main tarball extraction has issues, users
will still get a working CSS file and proper frontend styling.

The install script was downloading from GitHub's source archive
(/archive/refs/tags/) which doesn't include built CSS assets, instead
of the release assets (/releases/download/) which do include the
pre-built output.css file.
This fixes the "CSS file missing or empty" error during tarball
installations by ensuring the script downloads the proper release
tarball that contains all built assets.

Enhance install script to automatically detect corrupted output.css files
that contain HTML error pages instead of CSS content (caused by previous
installation issues). When detected during tarball updates, the script
now automatically restores the CSS from the fresh tarball and verifies
the repair was successful.
This allows users with broken CSS installations to simply re-run the
installer to automatically fix frontend styling issues without manual
intervention.

Tarball installations come with pre-built CSS and omit dev dependencies
like tailwindcss. Skip CSS rebuilding for tarball installations since
the CSS should already be compiled and ready to use.
This fixes the 'Failed to rebuild CSS assets' warning that was causing
frontend styling issues in tarball installations.
The shell glob '*' doesn't include hidden files by default, which was
causing .env.example to be skipped during tarball extraction. Enable
dotglob to include hidden files in the copy operation.
Fixes installation failures where configure_environment couldn't find
.env.example after tarball installation.
- Add detection for tarball vs git installations via package.json validation
- Handle version checking for tarball installations using remote API
- Provide proper update paths for both installation types
- Fix "invalid git repository" error for tarball installations
- Ensure both installation types can be updated seamlessly
This resolves issues where tarball installations were incorrectly flagged
as invalid and prevented from updating.
