feat: Desktop auto-updater + release SBOMs

- tauri-plugin-updater + process: pubkey embedded in tauri.conf.json,
  createUpdaterArtifacts, endpoint = GitHub latest.json manifest.
- Connect screen checks before auto-connect (bounded 5s) — a saved
  URL would otherwise navigate away before the check resolves.
  "Update & restart" downloads, verifies minisign, installs, relaunches.
- Release workflow signs updater artifacts with
  TAURI_SIGNING_PRIVATE_KEY secrets, ships the .sig files, and assembles
  latest.json from them. No key → no manifest → no update, never a
  silent unsigned install.
- anchore/sbom-action emits CycloneDX SBOMs per GHCR image plus the
  source tree, attached to every release.

Note: the signing keypair was generated locally
(~/.tauri/primora-updater.key); the private half must be added to repo
secrets before the next release for updates to activate.

CHANGELOG.md

@@ -26,6 +26,8 @@ All notable changes to Primora. Format follows [Keep a Changelog](https://keepac
 - **S3-compatible object storage backend** — `BACKEND_STORAGE_DRIVER=s3` swaps the local disk store for any S3-compatible API (AWS, MinIO, Garage, R2) via a stdlib-only SigV4 implementation — no AWS SDK dependency. `S3_ENDPOINT`/`S3_REGION`/`S3_BUCKET`/credentials configure it; `S3_PATH_STYLE` (default on) covers MinIO/Garage, off for AWS virtual-hosted. The configured bucket is created on startup if missing; objects stream with computed SHA-256, `storage_path` records `s3://bucket/key`. Verified live end-to-end (bucket → put → get → copy → list → delete).
 - **Functions** (`core.functions` + `core.function_runs`, migration 00015) — project-scoped JS/TS executed by a runtime binary on the backend host (`bun` or `deno`, per function). The JSON payload arrives on stdin and as `PRIMORA_PAYLOAD`; stdout/stderr are captured per run (capped at 64 KiB) with status, exit code and duration — `FUNCTIONS_RUNTIME`/`FUNCTIONS_TIMEOUT_SECONDS`/`FUNCTIONS_MAX_OUTPUT_BYTES` configure the runner. API: CRUD under `/projects/:id/functions`, `POST …/invoke` (502 + recorded run on failure), `GET …/runs`. Dashboard gains a Functions page: code editor, JSON payload invoke, live result, run history. Code executes with backend privileges — the documented self-hosted trust model.
 - **Presigned object URLs** — `POST /buckets/:bucketID/object-presigns` mints SigV4 query-signed `GET`/`PUT` URLs (60 s–1 h TTL) so clients transfer large objects directly against S3 without proxying through the backend. Read role for downloads (object must exist — no key probing), write role for uploads. `S3_PUBLIC_ENDPOINT` rewrites the client-facing host for internal `S3_ENDPOINT`s; signatures bind the host so URLs are valid only where they were minted. The local driver returns a clear error — a presigned URL needs a real object API.
+- **Desktop auto-updater** — `tauri-plugin-updater` wired end to end: minisign keypair, `createUpdaterArtifacts`, `latest.json` manifest built from signed artifacts on every release, and a silent background check on the connect screen offering "Update & restart" (download → verify → install → relaunch). Unsigned artifacts can never install — missing signature means no manifest, not a bypass. CI signs via `TAURI_SIGNING_PRIVATE_KEY` secrets; OS-level signing (notarization/Authenticode) remains open.
+- **Release SBOMs** — CycloneDX SBOM for each published GHCR image (backend/auth/frontend) plus one for the source tree, attached to every GitHub Release via `anchore/sbom-action`.
 - **Function triggers** (migration 00016) — three new ways to run a function, all through the same executor and run log. Scheduled jobs accept `function_id` instead of `url` (run status mirrors the exit code); inbound hooks gain `mode: "function"` — the received body becomes the function's stdin payload, acked immediately with the run recorded async; and `event_pattern` on a function (`document.*`, `*`, or an exact type) fires it detached whenever a matching domain event publishes — `{event, project_id, occurred_at, data}` as payload. Runs record trigger source: `manual`/`schedule`/`hook`/`event`. Dashboard: function event-trigger field, job target picker (URL or function), and inbound-hook function mode.

+`tauri-plugin-updater` checks `releases/latest/download/latest.json` on the
+GitHub repo when the connect screen loads; if a newer signed release exists
+it offers "Update & restart" — download, minisign verification, install,
+relaunch. No update manifest or signature failure = silent no-op; unsigned
+artifacts can never install.
+
+Release side (already wired in `.github/workflows/release.yml`): the desktop
+job signs updater artifacts with `TAURI_SIGNING_PRIVATE_KEY` (+ optional
+`TAURI_SIGNING_PRIVATE_KEY_PASSWORD`) repo secrets, uploads the `.sig`
+files, and the release job assembles `latest.json` from them. Without the
+secret the build still succeeds but emits no signatures — and no manifest.
+
+The matching public key is embedded in `tauri.conf.json`. The private key
+lives only in repo secrets and on the maintainer's machine — regenerate with
+`npx tauri signer generate` and update both if it is ever lost.
