No accessibility service and no usage access needed for foreground modes anymore

New in version 4.6.1
New "Remember deleted apps" option: keeps the block state of removed or disabled apps and restores it when they come back #133
Much faster profile switches and firewall toggles in Root and LADB modes: rules are sent as one batched call #131
Shizuku mode now uses a dedicated user service instead of an in-process hidden API bypass
Root mode keeps a persistent shell session instead of spawning su per command
Multi-user app scans are cached, so startup no longer rescans every launch
