Pi-Bolt 0.8.4

Pi-Bolt 0.8.4 lets Pi-Bolt and Pi share one setup without getting in each other's way, and makes installing on Windows smoother.
Everything else is 0.8.3.

Pi and Pi-Bolt side by side

• Pi-Bolt never changes the packages Pi loads. Both use ~/.pi/agent (logins, models, settings, sessions). Until you
  install or remove a package with pi-bolt, Pi-Bolt loads the packages in settings.json as Pi does; the first such change
  gives Pi-Bolt a list of its own (piBolt.packages, made from Pi's) and changes only that. A package you install with
  pi-bolt install is Pi-Bolt's; one you install with pi install is Pi's.
• OpenSec's extensions load in Pi-Bolt only. opensec-pi-subagents, opensec-pi-todo and opensec-pi-fff are built for
  Pi-Bolt's runtime, and Pi on Node cannot load them. Earlier installers added them to the list Pi reads too, so Pi started
  with "Failed to load extension" for each. Pi-Bolt moves them to its own list as it starts, and the installers have it do so
  right after installing: update Pi-Bolt (pi-bolt update) and Pi starts cleanly again.
• README: Pi and Pi-Bolt side by side.

Windows

• The install commands are irm https://pi-bolt.opensec.in/install.ps1 | iex in PowerShell and
  powershell -c "irm https://pi-bolt.opensec.in/install.ps1 | iex" in Command Prompt. The longer command the README and the
  site showed for a day, which turned TLS 1.2 on first, was blocked by Microsoft Defender; an older Windows 10 that needs TLS
  1.2 for the first download has two lines on the docs' Installation page.
• Installing or updating from a PowerShell 7 prompt works: install.ps1 uses Windows PowerShell's own modules first (thanks to
  @Vlyn, #14).

Releases

• A publish run again for a release, to put the site and the installers up again, skips the pi-bolt version npm has.

Engine

Unchanged since 0.8.3: this release's runtimes are 0.8.3's.
