The installer had no LICENSE file and only a vague "provided as-is" line in
the README. Adds MIT (matching the Intel Arc sibling repo) and a third-party
tools table making clear that davinci-resolve-checker (GPL-3.0) and Resolve
itself are fetched from upstream at install time, not bundled or
redistributed by this installer.

Drops Blackmagic (product itself, obvious) and Sheridan Computers (libc++
rollback writeup is referenced only as future-work in NOTES.md, not used
by the installer). Keeps Omarchy, davincibox, davinci-resolve-checker,
and the Arch Wiki — all directly referenced in install-davinci-resolve.sh.

Total rewrite of the installer mirroring the proven NVIDIA-Open install path,
with two new root-cause fixes for AMD on hybrid systems.
Installer (v3.0 -> v4.1):
- Pin ROCm 7.1.1 from Arch Linux Archive as the OpenCL provider; current
7.2.x is broken with DaVinci Resolve (clCreateContext fails / Color page
hangs on every AMD card). Adds IgnorePkg to /etc/pacman.conf and aborts
if pacman -U partial-downgrades.
- DRI_PRIME explicit PCI-tag pin in launcher (DRI_PRIME=pci-0000_BB_DD_F)
instead of DRI_PRIME=1, which on Intel+AMD hybrids flips OpenGL to the
iGPU and breaks CL/GL interop. switcherooctl branch removed (same bug).
- MESA_VK_DEVICE_SELECT pin added as defense-in-depth for Vulkan.
- Full glib-family symlink swap: all five of libglib-2.0, libgio-2.0,
libgmodule-2.0, libgobject-2.0, libgthread-2.0 (was three; mismatch
caused latent segfaults on signal emit / type registration).
- Manual install to /opt/resolve via ZIP -> .run -> appimage-extract ->
rsync, with patchelf --set-rpath on every ELF (replaces AUR PKGBUILD
approach).
- Auto-wipe stale ~/.local/share/DaVinciResolve/{configs,logs} on fresh
installs and whenever known crash markers appear in ResolveDebug.txt.
- Generation-aware gfx target detection (gfx1030/1100/1101/1102/1200/1201)
with auto HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION for non-natively-supported cards.
- Hyprland windowrule v3 syntax; dropped stay_focused (trapped-cursor in
modals); removed duplicate user-level .desktop entry; removed unused
Studio USB-dongle udev rule.
Docs:
- Rewrite README to match v4.1 reality (manual /opt/resolve install,
ROCm pinning rationale, hybrid-GPU PCI-tag note, refreshed GPU support
tiers, corrected uninstall steps).
- Add NOTES.md with full root-cause analysis, currently-pinned package
versions, recovery playbook, and quick sanity checks.
