feat(app): show a What's New page after an update (#2664)

After an update the restarted app opens what the new version brought as an editor tab, and Help > What's New reopens it at any time. Its checkbox turns the automatic opening off for later updates; the same switch sits on System Settings > Updates next to the update checks. The update balloon keeps a one-paragraph summary.

The release workflow fills the updater manifest's notes from the release body without its Download section, the install records them, and a version installed outside the app reads them from the manifest. The first start of a different version is recognised from the last run version kept in settings.
