Summary

  • Adds app: recipe section with fields entry, icon, summary, and type for Anaconda Navigator app discovery
  • Implements full Stage 0 → Stage 1 evaluation pipeline including multi-output recipe support with field merging
  • Injects app fields into info/index.json as app_entry, app_type, icon, summary, and type: "app"

Depends on conda/rattler#2051 for the IndexJson struct fields (currently app fields are injected via JSON manipulation).

Closes #2099

Test plan

  • All 245 rattler_build_recipe lib tests pass
  • All 116 rattler-build lib tests pass
  • Snapshot tests updated
  • Test with a recipe containing an app: section and verify info/index.json output

Implements the `app:` recipe section that allows packages to be
discoverable as applications in Anaconda Navigator. The section supports
four fields: entry, icon, summary, and type.

When present, the app fields are written to info/index.json as
app_entry, app_type, icon, summary, and type="app".

Closes prefix-dev#2099
