Added a GPU memory check using `getSystemInfo` to ensure Vulkan is selected only on systems with at least 6 GB of VRAM.
* Made `determineBestBackend` asynchronous and updated all callers to `await` it.
* Adjusted backend priority list to include or demote Vulkan based on the memory check.
* Updated Vulkan support detection in `backend.ts` to rely solely on API version (memory check moved to selection logic).
* Imported `getSystemInfo` and refined file‑existence validation.
These changes prevent sub‑optimal Vulkan usage on low‑memory GPUs and improve backend selection reliability.
- Add `src-tauri/resources/` to `.gitignore`.
- Introduced utilities to read locally installed backends (`getLocalInstalledBackends`) and fetch remote supported backends (`fetchRemoteSupportedBackends`).
- Refactored `listSupportedBackends` to merge remote and local entries with deduplication and proper sorting.
- Exported `getBackendDir` and integrated it into the extension.
- Added helper `parseBackendVersion` and new method `checkBackendForUpdates` to detect newer backend versions.
- Implemented `installBackend` for manual backend archive installation, including platform‑specific binary path handling.
- Updated command‑line argument logic for `--flash-attn` to respect version‑specific defaults.
- Modified Tauri filesystem `decompress` command to remove overly strict path validation.

* wip
* update
* add download logic
* add decompress. support delete file
* download backend upon selecting setting
* add some logging and nootes
* add note on race condition
* remove then catch
* default to none backend. only download if it's not installed
* merge version and backend. fetch version from GH
* restrict scope of output_dir
* add note on unpack
