Add reproducible build system, native Unraid plugin, and WebUI
- versions.env pins podman, conmon, crun, netavark, aardvark-dns, passt,
  and fuse-overlayfs to verified upstream source checksums; SlackBuild
  recipes, scripts/build-packages.sh, checksums.sh, release.sh, and
  update-versions.sh implement the reproducible pipeline; GitHub Actions
  workflows build in a Slackware container and publish releases without
  committing any binaries.

- plugin/podman.plg installs/updates/removes all eight packages (the
  seven components plus the plugin's own unraid-podman scaffolding
  package) via upgradepkg, using the official Unraid array-event hook
  mechanism (event/disks_mounted, event/stopping) instead of editing
  /boot/config/go. rc.podman and the sbin/ helper scripts implement
  storage creation, config seeding/sync, preflight checks, autostart
  with per-container Safe-Mode, and package verify/update/rollback.

- webui/plugins/podman implements the Dashboard, Containers, Pods,
  Images, Volumes, Networks, Logs, Terminal, Compose, and Settings
  panels against the approved mockup (webui/mockups/prototype.html),
  talking to podman system service exclusively via PodmanClient.php
  (libpod REST API over the Unix socket), with two documented
  exceptions: Terminal's one-shot exec model and Compose's use of the
  podman compose CLI, since libpod has no REST equivalent for either.

- docs/ARCHITECTURE.md and docs/ROADMAP.md record the design decisions
  and honest current status (syntax-checked, unit- and
  integration-tested against fake sockets/servers; not yet run against
  a real Unraid/Podman/Slackware system).

/**
* ajax/exec.php
*
* Backs the Terminal panel — and this is the one panel where "exclusively
* via podman system service, no shell hacks" needs an honest caveat
* spelled out rather than silently glossed over:
*
* libpod's real exec API (POST /containers/{id}/exec, then
* POST /exec/{id}/start) is used here — PodmanClient::execRun() never
* shells out to the `podman` binary. But that API's interactive mode works
* by HTTP connection hijacking: the HTTP connection is upgraded into a raw
* bidirectional byte stream for the lifetime of the shell session. That
* model assumes a long-lived process holding the socket open on both ends
* (an actual terminal emulator, or a WebSocket bridge) — it does not fit
* PHP-FPM's request/response lifecycle, where each AJAX call is a fresh,
* independent, short-lived process with no memory of any previous one.
*
* Rather than fake interactivity with something that would break on the
* first multi-line prompt, `sudo`, or interactive editor, this endpoint
* offers a deliberately simpler, honest contract: one command in, its
* complete output back, using Tty=true so output reads like a real
* terminal (colors, prompts-in-output, etc. survive) but with no
* persistent shell state (`cd` does not carry over between calls — see
* the "cwd" parameter below, which javascript/terminal.js tracks
* client-side and resends every time instead).
*
* A true interactive PTY (arrow-key history, tab completion, vim, ...)
* would need a WebSocket-capable process sitting between the browser and
* podman.sock — out of scope for this PHP/AJAX stack; tracked as a
* follow-up rather than implemented as a shell-out workaround.
*
* Actions (?action=...):
* run POST {"id": "...", "cmd": "ls -la", "cwd": "/config"}
