Direct answers to the three complaints in one release.

"Doesn't load any results even if I type a keyword" — navigateTo used to
always append .bch to any bare label. So "bitcoin" became
https://bitcoin.bch/ and NXDOMAINed. Now: input with a space, or bare
label with no dot, routes to the user's chosen search engine. Input with
a dot (hello.bch, example.com) stays a URL. Matches Chrome/Firefox
omnibox behaviour exactly.

"Has no check for updates in settings" — new Updates section shows the
installed version + signing-cert SHA-256, with a "Check for updates now"
button that manually polls dl.silentmode.st and toasts the result. If a
newer version exists, the standard silent-prefetch → green-chip → tap-to
-install flow (unchanged from 0.15) kicks in.

"Looks poor compared to a regular browser" — Settings gains three more
sections beyond Resolution / Ariadne's Thread / Maintenance:

- Search: segmented picker for DuckDuckGo (default), Startpage, Brave
  Search, Google, Kagi. Persists via SharedPreferences.
- Updates: version + cert + manual check.
- Privacy: "Clear browsing data" — cookies (CookieManager), form data,
  cache, per-tab history, all in one tap. Bookmarks + tabs preserved.
- About: silentmode.st/theseus + theseus.x links, brand credit.

serveSettingsPage() signature grew to take (indexerOn, searchKey,
currentVersion) so it can render the current selection + version. Added
searchEngineSegment() helper for the picker layout.

Release: ariadne-v0.17.apk sha256
8a655081782ecc17a50a7fcd67c28625ccb0c905cf6b583bdd703a128b2b9b10
Deployed to dl.silentmode.st + silentmode.bch (Sia mirror). Site pages
bumped: silentmode.st/tools + /releases + /theseus + theseus.x.
