feat: Pin the kernel to 7.1.6-1 on a Steam Machine

Sub-option of Steam Machine support, ticked along with it: newer CachyOS
kernels make the Steam Machine reboot instead of shutting down. Packages
are kept in /var/cache/steamify/kernel and reinstalled from there; else
pacman's cache, the CachyOS archive or mirror, or PINNED_KERNEL_URL.

## 0.11.0 - 2026-09-25
- **feat: Pin the kernel to 7.1.6-1 on a Steam Machine**
- New sub-option under Steam Machine support, ticked along with it (opt
out): newer CachyOS kernels make the Steam Machine reboot instead of
shutting down. Installs `linux-cachyos` and `-headers` 7.1.6-1 and adds
them to `IgnorePkg`; unticking removes the pin and updates the system.
- The packages are kept in `/var/cache/steamify/kernel` and reinstalled
from there without downloading; else from pacman's cache, the CachyOS
archive, the CachyOS mirror, or `PINNED_KERNEL_URL`.
- Installed kernel headers are no longer updated by the wizard, so the
pinned kernel keeps matching headers.
- The BIOS item moves down one (9 on a Steam Machine).
## 0.10.0 - 2026-09-24
