[Enhancement]: Auto-update #85

Description

Checked Existing

  • I have checked the repository for duplicate issues.

What enhancement would you like to see?

Add an auto-update to the app. This stems from PRs like #82, which are most effective when people can't just ignore updates. In theory the people running the scams could just not provide people with the latest version of the app, which means our warning never reaches people. Having Nimbus update automatically would somewhat fix this.

Any other details to share? (OPTIONAL)

I understand this may be a controversial suggestion, since it would effectively lock users out of older versions. Though there should really be no reason to stay on older versions when new releases happen. I am also not sure how we'd go about this, since people rarely need to open the app after they switch to our servers. Apps like 3hs have this "forced auto update" feature, which won't people use the app until they update, but apps like that have people open them a lot more than we do. I'm not sure if we'd be able to do this in the background even if we wanted to
