chore(release): v3.8.3 Critical Linux Hotfix

v3.8.2 shipped a Dependabot Tauri 2.11.1 bump (#201) that made every
Linux build non-functional: the production webview origin was
reclassified as remote and all backend commands were rejected. This
release re-pins Tauri to =2.11.0, bundles the vault edit-password and
storage-cache recovery fixes, and adds a dependabot ignore for tauri
2.11.x so the regression cannot recur.

+
+### Critical Linux Hotfix
+
+v3.8.2 shipped a Tauri 2.11.1 dependency bump that made every Linux build non-functional: the production webview origin was reclassified as remote and all backend commands were rejected, leaving the app unable to list files, read the credential vault, connect, mount drives or check for updates. Windows and macOS were unaffected. This release restores Linux operation and bundles the related vault and edit-screen fixes.
+
+#### Fixed
+- **Linux app fully non-functional on v3.8.2**: Pinned Tauri back to the known-good 2.11.0 so the production webview keeps backend access. Every Linux v3.8.2 install was affected; upgrading is strongly recommended.
+- **Saved-server passwords blank in the edit screen**: The edit form now reads the stored password from the vault unconditionally, matching the connect path, so credentials appear after the server list is rebuilt from the vault.
+- **Server list empty after a storage-cache cleanup**: The list is rebuilt from the encrypted vault when the local cache is missing instead of showing zero servers.
+- **Keystore backup and import**: Corrected the local backup whitelist key names and routed a double-clicked .aeroftp-keystore file straight to the import screen.
+- **Provider mode tabs while editing**: Locked read-only during profile edit to prevent accidental protocol changes.
+- **AeroFile initial panel**: Starts on a single left panel and never lists with an empty path.
+
+#### Changed
+- **Parallel transfer engine convergence**: File transfers continue converging on the shared concurrent executor with connection pooling and concurrent byte-range reads for faster multi-file and large-file transfers.

       <description>
         <p>The profile bridge grows from three sources to fifteen, and the twelve new sources are now fully wired into the Export/Import dialog rather than the CLI alone. Beyond rclone, WinSCP and FileZilla you can import from and export to AWS CLI, MinIO Client, s3cmd, OpenSSH, PuTTY, MobaXterm, lftp, Cyberduck, Dreamweaver, Kopia, restic and Duplicacy. Each source auto-detects its conventional configuration path, recovers credentials into the AeroFTP vault where the source format allows it, and shows a clear per-source note when only connection metadata or partial secrets can be carried. When exporting to a target tool, profiles whose protocol that tool cannot carry are shown disabled with an explicit reason and excluded from the written file, so an export never produces an unusable entry. A single shared core now backs every importer and the per-source protocol filter and export format are shared between the GUI and the CLI so the two never diverge.</p>
