Closes #5188. Closes #10987. The install guide's entire Linux section was "AppImage and `.deb` builds are available. See the Releases page for details." It named two of the three published packages, gave no basis for choosing between them, and said nothing about updating -- which is the one thing that actually differs between them. Separately, nothing human-facing said the Linux CLI is `orca-ide`; only skills/orca-cli/SKILL.md carried it, which agents read and humans do not. Install page now picks the package by update behaviour: the AppImage self-updates, deb/rpm report the new version and hand over the install command, and a repackaged build is not offered a download it cannot apply. Records that Orca never escalates privileges for the package install, and points at #18086 for the signed repo as planned, not shipped. Adds .rpm to the download list. Release CI builds it (release-cut.yml: `--linux AppImage deb rpm`) and verify-release-required-assets.mjs requires the artifact, so omitting it was just wrong. The CLI command name is now stated where humans hit it -- the CLI reference and overview -- with the GNOME Orca collision as the reason, plus the two places bare `orca` does work: inside Orca-managed terminals (PTY PATH shim) and on a packaged `orca serve` host (the ~/.local/bin dispatcher). The headless guide gains the same note, which is what makes its `orca skills install` lines correct rather than a typo.
