The bundled libzstd.so is incompatible with glibc 2.41's stricter heap
validation, causing "free(): invalid pointer" crashes.
Solution: Automatically replace bundled libzstd.so with system version
on Linux. The launcher detects and symlinks to /usr/lib/libzstd.so.1.
- Auto-detect system libzstd at common paths (Arch, Debian, Fedora)
- Backup bundled version as libzstd.so.bundled
- Create symlink to system version
- Add HYTALE_NO_LIBZSTD_FIX=1 to disable if needed

* fix: duplicated save-load gpu detection functions
* move game option settings to the top, while custom java to the bottom
* fix: settings-header margin-bottom from 3rem to 1rem and supress line-clamp warning
Added a full profile system and fixed a few critical mod loading issues.
What changed
Profiles — Implemented proper profile management (create, switch, delete). Each profile now has its own isolated mod list.
Mod Isolation — Fixed ModManager so mods are strictly scoped to the active profile. Browsing and installing only affects the selected profile.
Critical Fix — Fixed a path bug where mods were being saved to ~/AppData/Local on macOS (Windows path) instead of ~/Library/Application Support. Mods now save to the correct location and load correctly in-game.
Stability — Added an auto-sync step before every launch to make sure the physical mods folder always matches the active profile.
UI — Added a profile selector dropdown and a profile management modal.
