fix(appstore): catch GenericFileException when reading cache file in Fetcher

When the appstore cache file exists but getContent() throws a
GenericFileException (I/O error or OS-level permission failure), explicitly
delete the file and recreate it before writing fresh data — mirroring the
NotFoundException recovery path. If deletion itself fails, return [] cleanly.

Previously, the unhandled exception caused the entire apps settings page to
crash. The new test covers both the recovery path and deletion failure.
