Bruce MacDonald e7ccc129ea app: fix false "out of date" model warnings (#15101)
The staleness check compared the local manifest digest (SHA256 of the
file on disk) against the registry's Ollama-Content-Digest header.
These never matched because PullModel re-serializes the manifest JSON
before writing, producing different bytes than the registry's original.

The fallback comparison (local modified_at vs upstream push time) was
also broken: the generated TypeScript Time class discards the actual
timestamp value, so Date parsing always produced NaN.

Fix by moving the staleness comparison server-side where we have
reliable access to both the local manifest file mtime and the upstream
push time. The /api/v1/model/upstream endpoint now returns a simple
`stale` boolean instead of raw digests for the frontend to compare.

Also adds User-Agent to the CORS allowed headers for dev mode.
