updater: manifest + SHA256SUMS parsing scaffolding

First slice of the `banger update` package. No CLI yet — this just
defines the wire shape and parsers the rest of the flow will plug
into.

  * internal/updater/manifest.go — Manifest / Release types,
    ManifestSchemaVersion = 1, the hardcoded URL
    https://releases.thaloco.com/banger/manifest.json (var instead
    of const so tests can point at httptest), and FetchManifest /
    ParseManifest / Manifest.LookupRelease / Manifest.Latest.
    The manifest only references URLs (tarball, SHA256SUMS, optional
    signature); actual binary hashes come from SHA256SUMS itself,
    so manifest tampering can't substitute a hash for a known-good
    tarball.
    SchemaVersion gates forward-compat: a CLI that doesn't know its
    server's schema_version refuses to update rather than guessing.
  * internal/updater/sha256sums.go — ParseSHA256Sums tolerates both
    GNU `<digest>  <file>` (with optional `*` binary prefix) and
    BSD `SHA256 (file) = <digest>` formats. Comments and blank
    lines are skipped; malformed lines that LOOK like entries are
    rejected (silent skipping is the wrong failure mode for a
    security-relevant input). Digests are lowercased so the caller
    can `==`-compare without worrying about case.

Caps: 1 MiB on the manifest body, 16 KiB on SHA256SUMS, 256 MiB on
release tarballs. Generous-but-bounded; bumping requires a code
change so a server-side mistake can't fill the disk.

Tests: ParseManifest happy path, schema-version-too-new rejection,
five malformed-input cases. ParseSHA256Sums covers GNU + BSD +
star-prefix + comments-and-blanks, six malformed-input rejections,
case-insensitive digest normalisation. FetchManifest end-to-end via
httptest.

// Package updater drives `banger update`: discover a new release,
