jcoffey-dev cc77f62c01 Offer to install what is missing, rather than refusing over it
Refusing because Docker is absent is not help. It is a chore handed back to
the operator, who will then install it however the first search result says
to -- which is how machines end up with a third-party apt repository and a
signing key nobody chose.

So the installer offers. It says what it would do, in the same words the
plan uses, and does it only when told: --install-deps during a run, or
"inbuxa deps --install" on its own for someone preparing a machine before
they have a domain to give it.

What it installs, and from where, is the part worth arguing about:

- the Docker daemon: the distribution's own package. One package from an
  archive the machine already trusts beats a new source.
- the Compose plugin: Debian's docker.io ships no compose v2 at all, so this
  is Docker's official static build, pinned by version with its checksum in
  the source beside it.
- Node: the official tarball into /opt/inbuxa/node, deliberately off PATH so
  it runs the webmail's unit and nothing else.

Every download is checked before it is put in place; a checksum that does
not match stops the step rather than warning and carrying on.

Tested from a bare Debian 13 in the lab: 25 checks, ending with docker and
compose answering, node 22 where the unit will look for it, and the
installer agreeing that nothing is missing any more. The last of those
failed the first time -- the survey looked for node on PATH only, and so
could not see the one it had just installed.
