Subject: [PATCH] ux(log): clarify logToFile also affects restart dedup
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Deep bug-hunt of the per-hoster logToFile feature found the feature
itself clean (7 data flows traced: secret-store leaves hosterSettings
alone, save round-trip preserves the key for account-less hosters,
backup import/export round-trips, updateSettings full-replaces with
default-true fallback, checkbox branch precedes numeric coercion,
boolean survives IPC→JSON→parse intact).

The one real interaction effect: _autoDeduplicateFromLog reads
fileuploader.log on startup to drop already-uploaded files from the
restored queue. With logToFile off for a hoster, its entries are
absent, so the same file could be re-uploaded after a restart. The
dedup↔log coupling predates this feature; the toggle just makes it
observable.

Make it transparent in the checkbox hint rather than silently
shipping the surprise. Full decoupling (a separate always-written
dedup index independent of the user-facing log) is a larger,
separate change with its own risk surface — deferred unless wanted.

147/147 tests still green.
