Version Beta 0.11.6

Update: cmd:slacker upgrade-dist
- Add mkinitrd in core packages as Patrick did for slackpkg, read ChangeLog:
  Sat Aug 29 04:22:54 UTC 2026
  Install mkinitrd early because the kernel might need the latest version.
Fix bug: cmd:slacker history
- an interrupted upgradepkg can leave a renamed <pkg>-upgraded-<T>
  record behind in the packages/ admin dir, before it gets moved to
  removed_packages/. history read that directory without the filter
  installed_packages already applies, and PkgId::parse does not reject
  such a name -- it mis-splits it -- so the leftover showed up as a
  phantom installed package, with a bogus version and source label.
  history now skips these records, so search and history agree on what
  is installed. Creating the leftover is pkgtools' business; slacker
  just stops reporting it as a package.
Fix bug: cmd:slacker search
- the "not in any repo, but installed" fallback matched the installed
  name case-sensitively, while repo names are matched case-insensitively.
  So slacker search orbit2 answered "No package named 'orbit2'" (exit
  20) for a package that slacker search ORBit2 reported as installed.
  The builds this branch exists for -- SBo and local ones -- are exactly
  the ones with capitals in their names. Both spellings now find it, and
  the messages name the package by its real id, so the suggested
  slacker info <name> works as printed.
