feat: added better fan control for M3/M4 Apple Silicon (#2924)

Browse Source 
* Fix Ftst key handling for Apple Silicon fan control

* Update CFBundleVersion to 747 in Info.plist

Signed-off-by: Alex Goodkind <alex@goodkind.io>

* Update TeamId and SMC.Helper certificate identifier in Info.plist

Signed-off-by: Alex Goodkind <alex@goodkind.io>

* Add debug logging to SMC fan control functions

* Use writeWithRetry for Apple Silicon fan control writes and bump helper version to 1.0.3

* SMC fan control: serialize ops, Ftst timing, verification, logging

- Helper: serial queue for setFanMode/setFanSpeed/resetFanControl
- smc.swift: 3s wait after Ftst=1, longer mode retry (100ms), SMC result logging
- helpers: per-fan verification with cancel-on-supersede, clearer logs
- smc.swift: neutral write logs (no 'succeeded'), FAILED on error

* - Updated error handling in SMCHelper to suppress expected XPC errors (codes 4097 and 4099) during helper updates/restarts.
- Removed unnecessary debug print statement in ModeButtons for improved log clarity.

* Update version numbers in Info.plist files to 752 and change TeamId for SMC.Helper

* Add FanMode.auto3 and isAutomatic, re-add F%dMd write in automatic path, use isAutomatic in countManualFans; bump SMC Helper to 1.0.24

* Apple Silicon fan control: direct-first writes, strip diagnostic bloat

Try direct F%dMd=1 write before Ftst unlock (instant on M1, fallback
on M3/M4). Remove verification system, diagnostic prints, dead code.

* Apple Silicon fan control: direct-first writes

Try direct F%dMd=1 write before Ftst unlock (instant on M1,
fallback on M3/M4).

Bump helper to 1.0.2/3, Stats/Widgets to 751.
