v8-compile-cache breaks dynamic import() in this process.
electron-serve is ESM in newer versions, which breaks CommonJS require(). Kick off electron-serve initialization at module load and await it during init so the webui:// scheme is registered before we create windows / load URLs.
Prep for updating i18next-icu: newer versions are ESM-only, so require() breaks. Dynamic import works with both CommonJS and ESM.
Follow up to the ESM loader change so we can use the newer electron-serve release.
Use newer i18next-icu which requires intl-messageformat >=10.3.3.
We no longer use it (dynamic import breaks with it enabled).
Pin electron-builder to match the app-builder-lib patch and keep installs deterministic. The patch keeps the schema tweak that allows azureSignOptions.publisherName to be a string.
Keep patching dependencies during postinstall with the current patch-package release.
Keep electron-store on a known CJS-compatible release.
Refresh common dev tools (cross-env, dotenv, got, shx, sinon, tmp, semver-regex).
Keep fs-extra current.
Align address handling with the multiaddr stack used by newer IPFS tooling.
Port probing should work with /http-encapsulated multiaddrs as well.
Use the Kubo RPC client for daemon API calls.

This PR switches the daemon RPC client from
ipfs-http-clienttokubo-rpc-client.This PR introduces a race condition on startup, where it may print a "fetch failed" trace. The follow-up PR contains the mitigation.
Linting is expected to fail, since #3066 introduced a new linter. :)
This and #3078 fixes the tray icon not working properly, introduced in #3073.
Testing: I can only test on Linux, and I tested the core functionality of the app with Electron
