R.I.P. Cnchi — Calamares is now the primary installer

- Main install button now launches calamares-next instead of cnchi
  - Button label changed from 'Launch Cnchi Installer' to
    'Install Antergos NeXT'
  - Removed 'Alternative Installer' (Calamares) button — no longer
    needed since Calamares is the only installer
  - Welcome song path updated: /usr/share/cnchi-memes/ →
    /usr/share/antergos-next-memes/ (memes package repurposed)
  - Release notes page: added Cnchi retirement notice with eulogy
  - Readme page: updated instructions, removed cnchi-next link

<b>🕯️ Cnchi has been retired</b>
The original Antergos GTK4 installer was too unstable to maintain. Calamares is now the sole installer — more capable, upstream-supported, and ready for the future.
Thank you for trying Antergos NeXT!
