The CPIO-embedded initrd approach failed (too large for iPXE memory).
Instead, use iPXE's sanhook to connect the ISO as a SAN block device
before booting with kernel/initrd. The installer finds the ISO on the
SAN device while we retain control over kernel parameters.

Instead of sanboot (which can't pass kernel params for automation),
switch back to kernel/initrd boot. The ISO is embedded in the initrd
as a CPIO append. A pxe-init wrapper script loop-mounts the ISO
before handing off to the original init, so the installer finds it
as a block device. Uses rdinit=/pxe-init kernel parameter.

The Proxmox installer needs the full ISO to access packages and
installer data. Previously the ISO was deleted after extracting
kernel+initrd. Now we keep it as original.iso and serve it via HTTP.
The iPXE script passes proxmox-iso-url=<url> so the installer
fetches the ISO over the network instead of scanning block devices.

ISO uploads now show a progress bar during file transfer (via XHR
upload.onprogress) and real-time extraction status (via SSE events
through the existing Hub). Falls back to plain form POST if JS is
disabled.

Upload Proxmox ISOs via API or dashboard UI, extract kernel+initrd
using pure-Go iso9660 library, store on disk, and serve over HTTP
for PXE booting. Dynamic kernel/initrd filenames per image replace
the previous hardcoded paths.
