Add the Claude desktop app to Install > AI

Follows the ChatGPT flow: the Install > AI entry runs
omarchy-install-ai-claude in a floating terminal, which installs the
claude-desktop package (Anthropic's Linux desktop beta, repacked from
their Debian repo in omarchy-pkgs) and opens the app. Remove > AI
drops the package along with ~/.config/Claude and ~/.cache/Claude,
the Electron directories the desktop app owns, while keeping
~/.claude, ~/.claude.json, and ~/.cache/claude-cli-nodejs: those
belong to the Claude Code CLI, which ships in its own package and
survives this removal, just as the ChatGPT remover keeps the Codex
CLI.

The menu mark is a new U+E90E glyph in the Omarchy icon font, from
Simple Icons' Claude mark, so it reaches desktops through the next
omarchy-settings release.

+The _Install > AI_ menu also carries a few graphical AI apps: the ChatGPT desktop app, the Claude desktop app (Anthropic's Linux beta, with Chat, Cowork, and Claude Code tabs), Grok Bot for chatting with xAI's models, Hermes Desktop, OpenClaw, and the Perplexity desktop app.
 
 Hermes Desktop is the one to know about, because there is only ever one Hermes on a machine. The app only runs against a runtime built from its own commit, so it installs one of its own under `~/.hermes` on first launch, which takes a few minutes and shows its own progress. From then on that is the Hermes the terminal `hermes` command and the default agent use too, whichever order you installed them in. Installing it also hands Hermes the Omarchy theme as a skin named `omarchy`, which every Hermes surface follows as you switch themes; pick another under Hermes' Appearance settings or with `/skin` if you'd rather it didn't, and Omarchy leaves that choice alone. Removing the app under _Remove > AI_ takes that runtime with it, and keeps your chats, memories, and the skills Hermes wrote for itself unless you tell it otherwise: it asks, defaulting to no, whether that data and your connection settings should go too.
