gsxdsm ba643fc384 FN-9042: fix dashboard update installation feedback

Make dashboard update actions report clear terminal outcomes and avoid unsupported installs.

- Distinguish update checks, no-op responses, installation failures, and unsupported installation methods.
- Block source-checkout, Homebrew, and missing-npm global installation attempts with actionable guidance.
- Surface update results in dashboard controls and cover API, updater, and UI behavior with tests.
