Fix: the quiet download phase announces itself

Homebrew downloads casks in parallel, and even with verbose output the fetch phase can sit quiet for minutes on a fresh install — which looks like a hang. Now:

  • Before fetching, Groundwork prints a heads-up: a fresh install downloads several gigabytes in parallel and can look quiet for stretches; it has not hung, and interrupting only delays it (downloads resume).
  • Homebrew emits a heartbeat dot (at most one per minute) whenever it would otherwise be silent, via HOMEBREW_VERBOSE_USING_DOTS.

Pairs with v1.4.2's verbose streaming. Nothing to do after updating.
