Fixed debian installs being flagged as "Update available" when updated to latest version

Rebased onto main and combined with 8143a26: keeps the -bin/-git AUR detection and pre-release-aware version parsing from main, adds this change's pacman removal (now using the detected package name), its X.Y.Z-anywhere fallback and its dialog wording.
