feat(desktop): add remote dictionary sync engine to activity detector
Refactor loadDictionary to accept a file path and support both legacy bare-array (version 0) and versioned object formats. Add background sync that fetches the latest games.json from GitHub, uses ETag-based conditional requests (304 support), atomic cache writes, and hot-swaps processMap/gameEntries without resetting current detection state. On startup, the best local source (cache vs bundled seed) is loaded immediately for instant detection, then sync runs fire-and-forget.
