fix(install): remove --silent from build steps, clean node_modules before install, bump v0.5.1

package-lock.json generated on Windows includes win32 rollup binary but
not linux-x64-gnu, breaking the frontend build on the server.

- Add package-lock.json to .gitignore and remove it from git tracking
- update.sh: rm -rf node_modules + package-lock.json before npm install
  so the server always generates a platform-correct lock file from scratch
- update.sh: remove --silent from build steps so errors are visible
- .gitignore: fix stale whm/cpanel dist paths → nixserver/nixclient

+## [0.5.1] — 2026-04-11
+
+### Bug Fixes
+- **`install.sh` build steps used `--silent`** — errors during `npm install` and frontend/server builds were suppressed, making failures invisible. Removed `--silent` from all build commands. Also added `rm -rf node_modules package-lock.json` before `npm install` to ensure a clean platform-correct install, consistent with `update.sh`.

+## [0.5.0] — 2026-04-11
+
+### Bug Fixes
+- **Rollup native binary missing on Linux** — `package-lock.json` was generated on Windows and committed to git. It included the Windows rollup binary (`@rollup/rollup-win32-x64-msvc`) but not the Linux one (`@rollup/rollup-linux-x64-gnu`), causing the frontend build to fail on the server with `Cannot find module @rollup/rollup-linux-x64-gnu`.
+- **`package-lock.json` added to `.gitignore`** — lock files are platform-specific and must never be committed. The server now generates its own fresh lock file on every update.
+- **`update.sh` now does a clean install** — deletes `node_modules/` and `package-lock.json` before `npm install` on every update run to guarantee platform-correct native binaries. Also drops `--silent` from build commands so errors are visible.
+- **`.gitignore` corrected** — removed stale `whm/` and `cpanel/` dist paths, added correct `nixserver/` and `nixclient/` paths.
