3e4230ffc2 fix(settings): make model downloads explicit and cancel the whole intent (#1006)
* fix(settings): make model downloads explicit and cancel the whole intent

"Use it" on the recommendation card applied a different model than the one
shown, a cancelled or failed apply left the staged model behind so the next
Test Dictation downloaded it, and cancelling a download tore down and then
reloaded the previous model while the dialog waited.

- Recommendation is now passive text, compared by size tier, with a link to
  docs/MODEL_SELECTION.md. The "Use it" button is gone.
- Every Settings download asks first and shows size and source host.
  Declining, cancelling or failing drops the staged model spec and puts the
  pickers back on the saved config.
- Test Dictation refuses a model that is not on disk instead of applying it.
- reconfigure() fetches a missing model before releasing the loaded one, so
  a cancel restores state without reloading or rehashing the old model.
  Cancellation state is reset only when a download claim is taken or ended.
- Follow-layout mode shows the resolved language in the simple Main language
  control, read-only, and simple edits keep the "layout" setting.
