GitHub Releases update check — minimal, non-blocking, headless-friendly.
Hits https://api.github.com/repos/<owner>/<repo>/releases/latest in a
daemon thread and emits :attr:UpdateChecker.update_available with the new
version label and the release page URL. The main window uses the signal to
surface a dismissable banner.
The check is gated by two things:
SETTING_AUTO_UPDATE_CHECK — user-facing toggle (Settings → General).SETTING_LAST_UPDATE_CHECK — ISO timestamp; we skip if the previous
check ran within the last 24 hours so every launch doesn't pound the API.
If UPDATE_REPO_OWNER or UPDATE_REPO_NAME is empty the checker never
runs — lets the repo ship without a GitHub coordinate configured.
Bases: QObject
Runs the update check in a daemon thread; emits a Qt signal on hit.
check_async(current_version)
Starts the background check if gating conditions allow it.
Safe to call on every app launch — internal gating handles the
setting toggle, throttling, and missing-repo cases.

Parses a tag / version string into a comparable integer tuple.
Strips a leading v / V so v1.2.3 compares equal to 1.2.3.
Non-numeric trailing segments (-beta, +build) are dropped to
keep the comparison well-defined without pulling in packaging.
