Character Card Manager (for Silly Tavern) v2.0.0 — redesign and character card data fixes

What changed
v2.0.3 paired folder and library list (2026-09-14)

- Settings → Pair local folder can open and download original cards.
- Opening a card no longer changes library sort order.
- Confirm before irreversible metadata writes.
v2.0.2 privacy and offline (2026-08-27)
