A modernization release: BYLM's chat view moved to a new UI foundation, the
app follows your system's dark mode, and models that expose their reasoning
now show it in the conversation.

## See the model's reasoning

When a model returns its reasoning (thinking) alongside the answer, BYLM now
renders it in the conversation instead of dropping it. This is the first cut
of reasoning support — later releases build the collapsible tile, timers, and
per-bot controls on top of it.

## A rebuilt chat view

The conversation screen migrated to a new version of its chat UI framework,
with a round of styling fixes on top: clearer distinction between your
messages and the assistant's, corrected message-bubble sizing, and no more
crashes when messages update in rapid succession.

## Dark theme

BYLM now switches to its dark theme automatically when your system does, and
the conversation view renders correctly in the dark palette.

## Small improvements

- The bot form's model field is searchable, with fuzzy matching — type a
  fragment and matching models surface.
- The navigation drawer closes with the Escape key.
- The provider form scrolls properly on small screens.

## Under the hood

The toolchain and dependencies were brought up to date (Flutter, Android
SDK 36, the OpenAI-compatible client — which now also supports the
`developer` role newer OpenAI models expect).
