Features:

● Patch bundle cards now surface "Created" and "Updated" timestamps, and exports/imports preserve those timestamps so custom bundles keep accurate metadata
● Patch profiles now track their creation time, keep it when exporting/importing, and display the friendly timestamp on each profile card
● All exports initiated from Settings > Import & export (patch bundles, profiles, settings, selections, etc.) now default to files prefixed with urv_ for easier identification
● Appearance settings now present the System/Light/Dark choices styled like the mew accent presets, plus there is a new theme color pickers along with a live preview widget. The accent color picker and theme color pickers also have the option to manually enter hex codes now
● The "Show suggested versions" safeguard notice is now rendered as a card with a title so it no longer feels like a loose block of text under the expandable section. It is also collapsed by default and expandable even when the safeguard settings prevent the use of it
● Long names throughout the app (bundle cards, segmented buttons, tabs, etc.) now use horizontal swipes instead of auto-sliding/multiple lines so they stay still until you drag them

Bug fixes:

● Fixed patch bundle cards showing a rectangular press/hover state instead of respecting the rounded shape
● Fixed manual-only bundle update notices triggering on startup even when auto update is disabled or no update is available
