ui: add alpine local and github_alpine usage instructions (#116 )

## Why The alpine local repo (a real apk repo with auto-generated per-arch APKINDEX) and the new github_alpine remote (metadata-only apk index synthesized from a GitHub repo's release .apk assets) shipped without any "How do I use this?" UI guidance, unlike deb/github_deb. This adds the matching client instructions so users can consume and publish to these repos. ## How - Extend `case 'alpine':` in `UsageInstructions.tsx` to branch on `isLocal` (mirroring rpm/deb): - LOCAL: "Add the apk repo" snippet appends `${url}/api/v1/local/<name>` to `/etc/apk/repositories` with `apk update/add --allow-untrusted` (served unsigned, parity with rpm gpgcheck=0), plus a "Publish a .apk" snippet uploading to the canonical `<arch>/<name>-<version>.apk` path (APKINDEX carries no filename, so path must match or install 404s). - REMOTE: existing caching-proxy snippet kept unchanged. - Add `case 'github_alpine':` (always remote-class): "Add the apk repo (metadata-only, from GitHub releases)" snippet with `--allow-untrusted`; note explains the per-arch APKINDEX is synthesized from release .apk assets and downloads redirect to the backing releases remote. - No other cases touched. `npm run build` (tsc typecheck + vite) passes; pre-commit passes.
