…ersion resolve_redirect() follows HTTP redirects to determine the latest release tag, but never validated that the final URL still pointed to the expected GitHub repository. A compromised CDN, DNS poisoning, or an open redirect could cause the installer to extract a version tag from — and subsequently download binaries from — an attacker-controlled origin. Add origin validation: reject resolved URLs that don't match https://github.com/NVIDIA/OpenShell/*. Also cap redirect depth in download() to 5 as defense-in-depth.
