Description

Allow users to optionally start the Hikari app on system startup.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Add a "Start on boot" toggle in the Settings panel
  • Persist the setting across sessions
  • Register/unregister with the OS startup mechanism appropriately

Closing Note

Closing as won't-fix - this is trivial to configure at the OS level:

  • Windows: Settings > Apps > Startup, or add a shortcut to the Startup folder
  • Linux: Add a .desktop file to ~/.config/autostart/
  • macOS: System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Items

No need to add complexity to the app for something the OS handles well already~
