Summary

Two installer UX fixes plus the regenerated integrity manifest.

1. Per-package install progress

installPackage no longer hides the apt batch behind a single
"Installing N package(s)" spinner. Required and optional packages now
install sequentially with a running counter:

== System [15%]: Installing required packages ==
  -> Installing required packages (1/9)
       Installing: cron (via apt)
  -> Installing required packages (2/9)
       Installing: sudo (via apt)
  ...

The up-front "all required packages exist" check is preserved (a typo
still fails fast before anything installs). The optional path is now
best-effort per-package instead of batch-with-fallback.

2. Quiet run-log hints

The Run log: / View with: tail -F ... startup lines are hidden by
default. They are shown with the new --verbose flag (or
KINIT_VERBOSE=TRUE), and finalizeRunLog still prints the path
automatically when a run fails. The active live-TTY navigation line is
unchanged.

Validation

bash -n + shellcheck -S warning clean on kInit.sh and utils.sh.
Unit-tested the counter loop and the hint gating with stubs.
Regenerated checksums.sha256 via .scripts/unix/checksum.sh;
sha256sum -c passes and both embedded bootstrap hashes match.

Not run: a live root/apt end-to-end (needs a Debian/Ubuntu host).

Show per-package install progress and quiet run-log hints bfe93b9b08

installPackage now installs required and optional apt packages one at a
time with a running counter, surfacing each package name (e.g.
"Installing required packages (1/9)" / "Installing: cron (via apt)")
instead of a single batched spinner.

Run-log location hints ("Run log:" / "View with: tail -F ...") are hidden
by default behind a new --verbose / KINIT_VERBOSE flag and are still
printed automatically at the end of a failed run.

Regenerate the integrity manifest and embedded bootstrap hashes.
