SelenaCore Update: Advanced User Management and Presence Integration

The latest updates to SelenaCore bring significant enhancements to the platform's security and user interaction model. A major milestone is the integration of real-time presence tracking with user accounts. Introduced in commit 84060ca, this feature links active users to their profiles via a new database migration and API, complemented by a PresenceBadge in the UI.

To streamline the initial deployment, we have implemented a dedicated first-time setup flow fef50ac to bootstrap the system owner. The authentication layer has been further fortified with the AuthWall 0bfe076, featuring full-screen gates for unregistered devices and a new KioskElevationGate 973c1b1.

The user interface has received a major overhaul. The new UsersPanel and redesigned Settings tab 2372b93 allow for granular role management and profile editing ec68d1c. Additionally, documentation has been expanded to cover 11 new system modules f6c4acd. Technical fixes include VLC package integration in Docker 43a407f and refined SQLite path handling.
