HaikuDepot: Token Based Authentication

This switches the application over from using basic
authentication to using token-based authentication in
preparation for later using Open-ID based
authentication flows. The application version is also
bumped in order that the server can detect this version
at some later date in the future when it no longer
supports basic authentication itself.

HaikuDepot: Icon / Tarball Handling

Instead of exploding the tar-ball of icons from
HDS, keep it as a tar-ball, index it and read
data directly out from specific indicies on demand.

This will speed up the process of downloading
the icons by removing the unpack. Also updates
will be faster by avoiding the need to delete the
old icon files.

Because icons are loaded on-demand, the start
time is faster by avoiding all the icon loads.
There are also savings on memory consumption.

Indexing on each load is surprisingly fast so
no external index is maintained. Likewise for
the tar-balls's meta-data.

This commit does not cover the implementation
of an LRU cache of the icons in memory.

Relates to #15370

HaikuDepot: Process and Data-loading Improvements

This change is a reshuffle of the backend processing involved in the
aquisition of data from servers including the pull-down and load of
HPKR data as well as the pull-down and load of data from the
HaikuDepotServer (HDS) system. The driver for this change is to
implement an initial implementation of a progress bar for the
loading of data as the application starts.

The following are notable changes;

* Removed some previously attempted 'functional style' logic in the
model which didn't fit well with C++
* Use of the base-url in the logical mapping from HDS and HD data is no
longer required and has been removed
* Some logging has been improved making it clearer which part of HD
is producing the logging which in turn helps with debugging issues
* List class has been modified to more cleanly support sorted lists
and binary searches; tests have also be updated accordingly
* Reorganise and tidy-up of the data-loading processes' structures
* The local repository update (HPKR) and data-load occur in background
processes now in the same system as the HDS data-load - this has been
crudely shifted from the MainWindow to new Processes and incorporated
into the background processing system
* The 'state-machine' background process runner is now replaced with a
'coordinator' style approach that can more easily handle the new
processes related to HPKR loading.
* Progress for loading processes is shown in the main window in the
WorkStatusView - this is flickering a bit, but basically works
* Added some documentation regarding how Processes work in the system
* The "Refresh Repositories" menu item now also updates data from HDS
* The "Refresh Repositories" menu item is disabled when the background
processes are running that update the repository data

Some further refinement would be good, but this change is large enough
for one round of improvements. There is an issue that the status bar
is used for screenshot display as well as this data-loading, but that
was the case before so it is something that can be dealt with later if
it is a problem.

HaikuDepot: Trace Logging of RPC Payloads

Changes the trace logging so that JSON-RPC payloads
are included in the log stream. Also fixes a
memory-leak in the JSON-RPC client.
