release(v1.7.27-alpha): mirror transparency — served-by line + one-click test button

- New "Served by {mirror}" line on the System Update page so operators can see
  which mirror actually served the available manifest (vs. which is configured
  primary). Backend threads the served URL through UpdateState.manifest_mirror.
- New update.test-mirror RPC + per-row lightning-bolt button that pings a
  mirror and renders reachable/latency or error inline under the URL.
- UI polish on the mirrors section: Set Primary, Remove, and the new Test
  action are compact icon buttons; add-mirror form moved into a dialog.
- "What's New" block prepended for v1.7.27-alpha.

21/21 update module tests pass. vue-tsc + vite build clean.
