docs: update in-app docs for v1.33 Supply Depot + auto-updates

Refresh the in-app Markdoc docs for the v1.33 feature set:

- Repoint dead /settings/apps links to the Supply Depot (/supply-depot)
  across home, getting-started, and faq; reword "Apps page" / "Settings
  -> Apps" to "Supply Depot". The old /apps route now redirects to the
  Supply Depot.
- Expand supply-depot-apps.md with a "Managing your apps" section (Docs/
  Edit/Logs/Stats/Update/Remove, version + update-available visibility,
  custom launch URLs, per-app auto-update toggle) and a "Bringing your
  own app" section for custom Docker containers.
- Add a new "Updates" doc (updates.md) covering the auto-update trilogy
  (core/apps/content), manual updates, and the Early Access channel;
  wire it into DOC_ORDER and cross-link from home, getting-started, faq.

+## Managing your apps
+
+Every app you install gets a **Manage** menu on its card. From there you can:
+
+- **Docs** — jump straight to the NOMAD getting-started notes for that app (the same per-app sections you'll find below).
+- **Edit** — change an app's settings: port mappings, volume binds, environment variables, and memory/CPU limits. This works for curated apps too, not just custom ones. Your edits are merged into the app's existing setup, so advanced settings (like GPU access on the AI Assistant) are preserved, and an edited app stops getting overwritten by catalog updates.
+- **Logs** and **Stats** — open a live view of an app's log output or its current memory and CPU use, handy when something isn't behaving.
+- **Update** and **Remove** — pull the latest version of an app, or remove it (optionally deleting its image too). If an update's new container fails to start, NOMAD automatically rolls back to the version that was working.
+
+**Seeing what version you're running:** Each app card shows the installed version right next to the app name (for example, `Kiwix · 3.7.0`). When a newer version is available, an orange **Update available** pill appears on the card so it's easy to spot at a glance.
+
+**Custom "Open" links:** By default the **Open** button points at the app on your NOMAD's own address. If you run a reverse proxy or local DNS and would rather open an app at a friendlier address (for example `https://jellyfin.myhomelab.net`), use **Manage › Edit** to set a custom launch URL. NOMAD keeps your original link safely on file, so you can always switch back, and the override sticks across upgrades.
+
+**Keeping apps updated automatically:** Installed apps can update themselves hands-off. This is opt-in at two levels — a master switch in **Settings → Updates** and a per-app toggle in the Supply Depot — and only minor and patch updates are ever applied automatically (major versions always stay manual). See the [Updates guide](/docs/updates) for the full story.
+
+---
+
+## Bringing your own app
+
+Beyond the curated catalog, the Supply Depot can run **your own Docker container** as a managed app alongside everything else. Click **Add a custom app** and tell NOMAD:
+
+- the **image** to pull (for example `ghcr.io/owner/app:1.2.3`),
+- any **port mappings**, **volume binds**, **environment variables**, and **memory/CPU limits** it needs.
+
+As you fill it in, NOMAD runs a live pre-flight check and warns you about things like port conflicts or risky settings. Some warnings (an untrusted registry, or a `:latest` tag that can't be version-tracked) are advisory and you can choose **Install anyway**; genuinely unsafe configurations are blocked outright.
+
+Once installed, a custom app behaves like any other: it gets the same **Manage** menu (Edit, Logs, Stats, Update, Remove), shows its version on the card, and can opt in to automatic updates. NOMAD hardens host-path binds and scopes logs and stats to its own managed containers, so a custom app can't reach outside what you give it.
+
+> A custom app is exactly that — yours. NOMAD runs it and gets out of the way; it doesn't provide setup docs or support for software outside the curated catalog. Check the project's own documentation for how to use it.

+# Keeping N.O.M.A.D. Updated
+
+N.O.M.A.D. works best when it's kept current while you have internet, so it's ready with the latest software and content the next time you go offline. This page explains what can be updated, how to do it on demand, and how to let N.O.M.A.D. handle it for you automatically.
+
+---
+
+## The three kinds of updates
+
+There are three separate things that can be updated, and you control each one independently:
+
+1. **Software (the core)** — N.O.M.A.D. itself: the Command Center, new features, bug fixes, and security improvements.
+2. **Apps** — the installable apps from the [Supply Depot](/supply-depot) (Kiwix, the AI Assistant, and any others you've added).
+3. **Content** — your offline material: Wikipedia and other Kiwix libraries, and downloaded map regions.
+
+You can update any of these on demand, or set any of them to update automatically.
+
+---
+
+## Updating on demand
+
+To check for and install updates yourself:
+
+1. Go to **[Settings → Check for Updates](/settings/update)**.
+2. If a software update is available, click to install it. N.O.M.A.D. downloads the update and restarts (usually 2–5 minutes).
+3. Apps can be updated from their card in the [Supply Depot](/supply-depot) using **Manage › Update**.
+4. Content is managed from **Settings → Content Manager** and **Content Explorer**, where you can download newer versions of installed libraries and maps.
+
+If a software or app update ever fails, N.O.M.A.D. is designed to recover gracefully — the previous working version keeps running, so your server stays up.
+
+---
+
+## Automatic updates
+
+N.O.M.A.D. can keep itself current without you having to remember to check. **Automatic updates are opt-in and off by default** — nothing updates on its own until you turn it on. You manage all of it from **Settings → Updates**.
+
+A few things are true across all three:
+
+- **You choose a time window.** Automatic updates only run during the hours you set, so they never interrupt you mid-use.
+- **Major versions are never automatic.** Only minor and patch updates apply on their own; a big version jump always waits for you to do it manually, on purpose.
+- **Safety checks come first.** Before applying anything, N.O.M.A.D. confirms there's enough disk space and that no other update, download, or install is already in progress.
+- **Being offline is harmless.** If N.O.M.A.D. can't reach the internet to check, it simply skips that round and tries again later.
+
+### Automatic software (core) updates
+
+Turn this on from **Settings → Updates**. When enabled, N.O.M.A.D. updates its own core to newer releases within the same major version, during your chosen window, after a configurable **cool-off** period (so a brand-new release has time to prove itself before your server takes it). The same page shows the toggle, the window, the cool-off setting, and live status. If updates fail repeatedly for a real reason, N.O.M.A.D. turns the feature back off and lets you know rather than retrying forever.
+
+### Automatic app updates
+
+App auto-updates are opt-in at **two levels**: a master switch in **Settings → Updates**, *and* a per-app toggle on each app's card in the [Supply Depot](/supply-depot). Both have to be on for an app to update itself. App updates share the same update window and cool-off as the core, apply only minor and patch versions, and back off automatically for any individual app that keeps failing.
+
+### Automatic content updates
+
+Installed Wikipedia/ZIM libraries and map regions can refresh themselves too. Because content downloads are large (often many gigabytes), content updates run on their **own dedicated overnight window** with a **bandwidth cap**, separate from the software and app schedule. N.O.M.A.D. checks the upstream Kiwix and map catalogs directly, and when a Wikipedia library is replaced with a newer version, it keeps the AI Knowledge Base in sync automatically.
+
+---
+
+## Early Access Channel
+
+Want new features before they reach the stable release? Enable the **Early Access Channel** from the [Check for Updates](/settings/update) page to receive release-candidate builds. Early-access builds may contain rough edges — you can switch back to stable at any time.
+
+---
+
+## Before you go offline
+
+Whatever you choose, the habit that matters most is simple: **update while you still have internet.** Whether you do it by hand or let automatic updates handle it, make sure your software and content are current before you head somewhere without a connection. When you're offline, you'll have the last synced versions of everything ready to go.
