Dario Gabriel LipicarandClaude Opus 5 fe4f26cecf feat: build ui_qml glue with logos-view-generator, not logos-qt-generator
modulePreConfigure.nix switches the `--backend ui` invocation to
logos-view-generator (logos-view-module), which now owns that emitter and
the logos_ui_plugin_context.h it pairs with.

THE REASON THIS IS NOT COSMETIC. This builder pins logos-qt-sdk at 4a1104c,
which predates b7b82e5 — the commit that added the module teardown hook to
the ui emitter. At 4a1104c BOTH halves lack it, so every build has been
green and self-consistent, and the hook has NEVER REACHED A SINGLE SHIPPED
ui_qml MODULE. Measured on the same module, before and after, by loading the
built plugin with QPluginLoader and dumping its QMetaObject:

    BASELINE                      MIGRATED
      initLogos(LogosAPI*)          unloadFinished()      [signal]
                                    initLogos(LogosAPI*)
                                    int aboutToUnload()   [invokable]

So this delivers the hook for the first time rather than preserving it.

LOGOS_VIEW_INCLUDE_DIR is added BEFORE the qt-sdk root in
LogosModule.cmake, so the emitter and its header resolve from ONE pin. That
ordering is load-bearing until logos-qt-sdk stops installing its copy of
logos_ui_plugin_context.h — anything going through logos_module() is safe;
a hand-run cmake putting LOGOS_QT_SDK_ROOT first would silently get the
wrong header. Called out in the code rather than left implicit.

Blast radius is 7 modules, not one: package_manager_ui, chat_ui, wallet_ui,
test_uiqml_probe, test_fullapi_ui, calc_ui_cpp and templates/ui-qml-backend
all match ui_qml + interface:universal. None override aboutToUnload(), and
the base default is Synchronous, so every one answers 0 and no host waits —
the change is additive. Only package_manager_ui was built end to end.

Three assertions in tests/test-module-pre-configure.nix pin the binary
choice; repointing at logos-qt-generator fails them. Also corrects a comment
there that claimed "the ui backend still legitimately uses qt-sdk's".

7/7 checks green, 399 unit tests.
