A published port no longer implies a web UI. The package scanner used to
synthesize interfaces.main.ui="true" for any container with a port or
onion address, so headless backends — including self-deployed compose
stacks like podsteadr — showed up as launchable apps. New ui_detection
module decides instead: a manifest interfaces declaration (catalog
overlay first, disk second) is definitive; undeclared apps get a short
HTTP probe of the launch port (HTML page, redirect, or browser auth
wall = UI; JSON APIs, raw TCP, dead ports = service), with cached
verdicts and probes gated on running containers. Frontend canLaunch
now refuses curated services outright and only treats a bare runtime
address as launchable for curated known apps.
Works identically for manifest apps and containers deployed by hand
outside the orchestrator. ui_detection tests 6/6, frontend suite
696/696.

Per the rule that only front-end apps with a UI belong in "My Apps"
(databases/backends/headless go to Websites), make the manifest's
interfaces.main.ui the deciding signal. isWebsitePackage now treats any
package that declares a UI as an app even when it isn't in the curated
APP_CATEGORY_MAP, and falls through headless LAN-reachable packages to
Websites. Additive — service-by-name infra and curated known apps are
unchanged, so no currently-correct app moves.
