Auto-cleanup old versions after update #25753

Description

@hotovson

The
standalone installer keeps old binaries in ~/.local/share/claude/versions/ without ever cleaning them up.
Each version is ~175MB, so after a few updates it wastes 500MB+. The updater should delete old versions after
successfully symlinking the new one.
