Sync fixes:
- Extend stall detection beyond IBD to catch post-IBD sync gaps
- Walk-forward inv continuation to avoid CBlockLocator exponential gap loop
- Track walk-forward progress for stall recovery without restarting from scratch
GUI fixes:
- Load transactions synchronously in constructor (deferred QTimer never fired)
- Use beginResetModel/endResetModel instead of deprecated reset()
- Schedule full refresh on TRY_LOCK failure to avoid dropped CT_NEW notifications
- Only update cachedNumBlocks after successful balance check (prevents permanent loss)
- Add GetAllBalances() single-pass balance retrieval with TRY_LOCK
Bootstrap:
- Add trusted snapshot manifest verification for bootstrap archives
- Add IsKnownCheckpoint() to validate manifest against compiled-in checkpoints
- Skip txleveldb rebuild when verified manifest is present
Bump version to 5.3.7 across all packaging manifests.

- Add test-linux-unit CI job; release now depends on tests passing
- Replace LOCK(cs_wallet) with TRY_LOCK in transactiontablemodel to avoid GUI freezes
- Add build artifacts to .gitignore (dist/, zips, object scripts)
- Add unit test instructions to README

During sync, NotifyTransactionChanged fires for every wallet tx in
every block, each triggering 3 blocking LOCK(cs_wallet) calls on
the UI thread: updateWallet, GetAllBalances, getNumTransactions.
With the block processing thread holding cs_wallet almost continuously,
the UI thread blocks waiting for the lock - causing "not responding".
Fixes:
- GetAllBalances: LOCK → TRY_LOCK, returns false if busy
- updateWallet (tx table): LOCK → TRY_LOCK, skips if busy
- updateTransaction: removed checkBalanceChanged() call entirely
(pollBalanceChanged timer handles it every 2.5s with TRY_LOCK)
- getNumTransactions: replaced with rowCount() from cached model

Peer connectivity (small network optimizations):
- Reduce hardcoded seed fallback delay from 30s to 10s
- Reduce peer retry interval from 600s to 120s
- Lower staking minimum peers from 3 to 1
- Relay addr messages to all connected peers instead of just 2
UI responsiveness:
- Add progress reporting to ScanForWalletTransactions (every 10K blocks)
- Use TRY_LOCK in WalletModel::pollBalanceChanged to avoid blocking UI
- Use TRY_LOCK in TransactionTablePriv::refreshWallet with retry
Auto-bootstrap:
- Add bootstrap.h/cpp with HTTP download via boost::asio
- On first run, prompt user to download blockchain snapshot from
bootstrap.cryptographic-triangles.org directly into data directory
- Downloads filelist.txt manifest then each file with progress dialog
- Falls back to IP 194.233.88.206 if DNS fails
- Gracefully continues to P2P sync if bootstrap unavailable

- Address table and transaction table now load asynchronously via
QTimer::singleShot after the event loop starts instead of blocking
the constructor
- MessageModel (secure messaging) lazy-loaded 1s after wallet init
or on-demand when navigating to message page
- Splash screen stays visible until window.show() completes
- Guard updateConfirmations() against empty transaction table
