Solomon Peachy 3e996ec73e FS#13993 - rbutl push decompression onto a separate thread (Alessio Lenzi)
During Rockbox installation or update, the progress window currently
becomes unresponsive to screen-reader navigation while archive
inspection, free-space calculation and extraction are in progress. A
blind user cannot reliably move through or read the status messages and
therefore cannot determine what the utility is doing, how far the
installation has progressed, or whether an error has occurred.

The cause is that these operations are performed synchronously in the
GUI thread after a package has been downloaded. Although the
installation itself continues, the user interface cannot process
keyboard input and accessibility events reliably until the operation
finishes.

The attached patch moves the package installation work to a low-priority
QThread. Downloading remains asynchronous as before, while progress and
log signals from archive extraction are delivered back to the GUI thread
through Qt connections. This keeps the progress window fully navigable
with a screen reader throughout the installation.
