Release v1.7.184

Backup:
- Neues Setting backupIncludeDownloads (Default aus) — Backup sichert
  standardmaessig NUR Einstellungen, nicht die Download-Liste/History.
- buildBackupPayload/planBackupImport (testbare backup-payload.ts): Export
  omittet session+history wenn Flag aus (explizites kind-Marker); Import folgt
  dem FILE-Inhalt, nicht dem lokalen Toggle.
- importBackup: settings-only -> frueher Return nach setSettings, KEIN stop/
  Queue-Wipe/Relaunch. Return {restored,relaunch,message}; main.ts gated den
  Auto-Relaunch auf relaunch. Renderer re-seeded settingsDraft bei !relaunch.

Bugfixes:
- Ctrl+A waehlte das ungefilterte Paket-Map -> Loeschen nach Suche traf
  versteckte Pakete. Jetzt visibleOrderIds (sichtbare Zeilen, inkl. Items).
- selectedIds nie geprunt bei Delta-Removal -> aufgeblaehte Counts. Neue pure
  pruneSelection (selection.ts) + Effect.
- link-status-dot conditional -> Dateiname sprang ~14px. Platzhalter-Slot.
- sortPackagesForDisplay sortierte aktive Pakete nach Live-Progress -> Reshuffle
  pro Tick. Jetzt stabile Queue-Reihenfolge je Gruppe (Anti-Flicker).

+17 Tests (backup-payload 9, selection 5, package-order anti-flicker 3).
