install.sh: offer to enable tailscaled's SOCKS5 proxy ([y/N])

When userspace-networking Tailscale is detected with no proxy at
localhost:1055, don't just print the fix — offer to apply it: patch the
flag into any writable launcher script that starts tailscaled (e.g. a
container entrypoint, so it persists across restarts) and restart the
daemon with its existing flags plus --socks5-server. When the installer
lacks the rights to restart it (tailscaled is usually root's), it
patches the launcher and says to restart the container/box instead.

Defaults to no, and non-interactive installs never touch the daemon;
OMARCHY_SEND_FIX_TAILSCALE=yes|no pre-answers the prompt. The restart
warning notes it briefly drops the tailnet, including tailscale SSH.

```
The installer detects this situation and **offers to apply the fix** ([y/N]):
it adds the flag to the launcher script that starts tailscaled (a container
entrypoint, say) and restarts the daemon — or, when it lacks the rights to
restart it, patches the launcher and tells you to restart the container/box.
Non-interactive installs never touch the daemon; pre-answer with
`OMARCHY_SEND_FIX_TAILSCALE=yes` (or `no`) to skip the prompt.
Note that inbound connections on such boxes appear to come from `127.0.0.1`
(tailscaled re-dials loopback); omarchy-send keeps a peer's routable address
rather than letting those registers overwrite it.
