feat(update): tell users when a newer App Store version is out - #1069

A message this build can't read showed a dashed "This message can't be displayed" bubble with "Update Flipcash to see it" hanging under it. The `.updateApp` hint now draws a plain received bubble with no outline: the title "This Message Needs a Newer Version of Flipcash" over the body "Update Flipcash to see messages like this. This one stays hidden." (component 11420:13397), set in the `appTextMedium`, `appTextCaption` and `appTextSmall` tokens rather than Figma's 15/13/14 sizes. Title and body are separate labels; as one attributed string with paragraph spacing, the cell measured short and clipped the body. The decrypt-failure hints (`.askToResend`, `.resend`) keep the dashed bubble. `ChatMessageCell.configure` takes an optional `ChatBubbleAction` that adds an "Update Flipcash" capsule. Nothing passes one yet, so no button shows until the update check exists. A message whose content type this build doesn't know was dropped by `ConversationMessage.init?`. It now maps to `.widget(.unrecognized)`, which already reads back from the store as unsupported, so the schema is unchanged. A message with no content entry is still dropped.
The app knew only the forced minimum build, so an optional update went unnoticed. `UpdateAvailability` (on `Container`) now asks the App Store lookup for the newest version when the app becomes active, at most every 6 hours, and caches the result. Debug, TestFlight and Xcode builds skip the check: anything whose `AppTransaction` environment isn't production. A failed lookup reads as no update. Priority comes from `.well-known/release-manifest.json`, read from `main` on GitHub. It applies only when its production version matches the lookup's, and it is seeded with the current store version, 2026.10.2, at priority 0. "New version available" with an Update action shows once per version when the update is priority (4+) or has been out 7 days: - On the Chats or Wallet home, 1s after coming back from a pushed screen or after 3s on the home, for 10s (section 11693:162). - In a chat, 1s after it opens with the keyboard down, for 6s, raised over the composer and as wide as it (section 11705:162). The keyboard coming up dismisses it. The version is recorded only once the toast is actually on screen, since the controller drops a toast while a sheet or bill covers the app. Update opens `SKStoreProductViewController`, falling back to the App Store app if the product fails to load. The unsupported-message bubble gets the same action as "Update Flipcash" whenever a newer version exists, with no priority or once-only gate. `toastClearance` takes an optional horizontal inset for the chat bar, so every toast in a chat now sits above the composer at its width. Debug builds can force the toast with `-UpdateAvailableOverride <version>`.
The chat toast sat 28pt above the composer, not the 8pt section 11705:162 asks for: the clearance counted the bar's 8pt top margin and its 8pt drop into the safe area on top of the host's 12pt padding. `toastClearance` takes an `overlap` that lowers the toast back into the bar's measured height, and the chat passes `BarMetrics.toastOverlap` (20pt). The profile screens keep the default of 0.

The app only knew the forced minimum build, so an optional App Store update went unnoticed. This adds an update check, a one-time "New version available" toast, and an Update action on messages this build can't read. The Android side is code-payments/code-android-app#1770 and code-payments/code-android-app#1771.

UpdateAvailability(onContainer) asks the App Store lookup for the newest version when the app becomes active, at most every 6 hours, and caches the result. Builds whoseAppTransactionenvironment isn't production (debug, TestFlight, Xcode) skip it. A failed lookup reads as no update..well-known/release-manifest.jsononmain, and applies only when its version matches the lookup's. It is seeded with 2026.10.2 at priority 0.SKStoreProductViewControllerfor app id 6758636374, falling back to the App Store app if the product fails to load.Toast
"New version available" shows once per version, when the update is priority 4+ or has been out 7 days:
The version is marked seen only once the toast is on screen, since the controller drops a toast while a sheet or bill covers the app.
Debug builds can force the update state with
-UpdateAvailableOverride <version>.
