v0.2.3 — Scroll cut-off actually fixed

Fixes the scroll cut-off in Installed Packages, AI & Skills and three other views. The 0.2.2 inset was applied before the fill frame, which absorbed it; modifier order is now correct.

v0.2.0 - Dynamic Rules, Factory Reset & Trashing Engine

VACS v0.2.0 Release Notes

🌟 Major Features & Fixes

• Dynamic Rule Store (DynamicRuleStore.swift): Automatically synthesizes clean rules for all non-system installed apps on Mac with 5 strict safety guards.
• Factory Reset App Data: Added dedicated 'Factory Reset App Data' preset in app detail view to wipe caches, preferences, and support data while preserving the app bundle.
• Finder AppleScript Trashing (trashViaFinder): Resolved trashing failures for root/admin-owned app bundles (e.g. Adobe Creative Cloud) by invoking macOS Finder's authentication prompt.
• Chunked Package Streaming & Single-Pass Sizing: Package Finder now streams binary results incrementally, and single-pass folder sizing eliminates UI freezes during drilldown.
• Dynamic App Icons & Category Fixes: Added dynamic app icon resolution across all app extensions and dynamic rules, mapped App Sandbox containers to Apps category, and automatically hide empty (0 B) categories in sidebar.

• Closes #7: UI freeze during folder expansion fixed by single-pass duMap.
