Summary

Added support for compressible "text/x component" content type and new desktop APIs: clipboard access and enhanced menu item options (checked, icon, tooltip).
Fixed a wide range of bugs across core, extensions, and the desktop runtime, including esbuild download isolation, header handling, RSA OAEP label preservation, pipe ownership, HTTP header validation, NPM peer resolution, and more.
Improved performance with dynamic growth of the core op driver arena, uncontended fast‑path for AsyncRefCell, and zero‑copy snapshot rehydration.
