Restart the shell unconditionally after every update

Browse Source 
Updates routinely replace the shell's QML, and a stale process can
lazy-load new files into old code. Restarting at the end of every
omarchy update removes the need for migrations to restart the shell
or defer one with the restart-shell-required marker: the login-time
migration path already runs a fresh shell that hot-reloads shell.json.

`omarchy-pkg-add`, `omarchy-pkg-drop`, `omarchy-pkg-present`, and
`omarchy-pkg-missing` when appropriate.
- Never restart the Omarchy shell. `omarchy update` restarts it unconditionally
after migrations run, and the login-time shell already runs current code and
hot-reloads `shell.json` edits.
