Loading indicator:
- Branded boot splash (Hub logo inside an accent spinner ring,
"Starting The Hub") covers the shell while the first services
data loads, then fades out once the welcome dashboard has
rendered; never blocks longer than 25s and reassures the user
after 8s (message about post-reboot delays)
- Fire the network and update checks before the first services
render so the dashboard cards are current at first paint
- Sidebar Update button now adopts the last known update state
when built (order-independent), and the welcome dashboard
re-renders when the update state changes
Icons:
- New monochrome g-pulse glyph (activity line) for Systems
Operational: welcome card, dialog header, and System Status
section — the shield no longer doubles as Security
- Tech Support / Security dialog header gets a standard chip;
Security shows the shield chip with a plain "Security" title
(no emoji), and the shared dialog title now resets correctly
when reopening Tech Support after Security
