Install lazygit as an opt-in tool #467

@primetimetank21

Description

@primetimetank21

Install lazygit -- terminal UI for git commands.

Scope

  • New tool installer at scripts/linux/tools/lazygit.sh (GitHub release tarball is most reliable; Ubuntu PPA lags badly)
  • Windows counterpart at scripts/windows/tools/lazygit.ps1 (winget preferred, scoop fallback)
  • Wire into the install pipeline behind the new flag framework (filed separately)

No config required

lazygit works out-of-the-box. No global git config changes needed.

Out of scope

  • Custom keybindings / theme (users can configure ~/.config/lazygit/config.yml post-install)

Verification

  • New parity test pair (bash + pwsh) for the installer
  • Verify lazygit --version reports a version after install
  • Verify binary is on PATH

Dependencies

  • Should land after the flag framework (filed separately) so it slots in as an opt-in tool from day one.
