teknium1 8170c16cca fix(desktop): route every desktop-plugin tree copy through staged publication
Extract the contributor's staging + rename sequence into
`publishDesktopTree` and make `installDesktopPluginFromGit` use it too:
its `copyDesktopTree` had the same mkdir + cp shape, so a copy that failed
half-way left an empty `<root>/<name>/` and every later install attempt
was refused with "already exists. Enable force reinstall to replace it".
One helper, both copy sites, same guarantee: a published folder is always
complete (marker included) or absent.

Docs: describe the staged copy and the marker-less/plugin.js rule in the
desktop plugin SDK guide.

// The standalone desktop-plugin root (`<HERMES_HOME>/desktop-plugins`) and the
// one-time migrations that make it the ONLY place desktop code loads from.
//
// A desktop plugin extends THIS APP — panes, palette commands, themes — not an
// agent. Profiles are agents; anything discovered through a profile's folder
// appeared and disappeared with the active profile, which read as "my plugin
// vanished" every time the user switched. Bundled plugins never had that
// problem (they ship in the app), which hid the bug for disk installs.
//
// Two profile-shaped sources are lifted into the app root:
// 1. `profiles/<name>/desktop-plugins/<id>` — earlier builds scoped the
// standalone root per profile.
// 2. `plugins/<name>/desktop/plugin.js` (default home AND every profile) —
// the desktop half of a unified agent+desktop package. The agent half
// stays where it is (it runs in that profile's gateway); the desktop half
// is COPIED out as `<root>/<name>/` with a `.hermes-package.json` marker
// so the UI can pair it back to the agent row and re-copy on update.
