Christopher Van HooseandClaude Fable 5 9d477d32df Lua apps: implement the manifest icon; GPS Compass gets the location glyph

Every installed Lua app drew the same generic play glyph in the drawer, and
the manifest's "icon" -- promised in LUA_APPS.md since the plan was written --
was never parsed. It is now read from <id>.json and mapped to a glyph by NAME
(gps / radio / chart / game / ...), not by codepoint: a name is reviewable in
a store submission, the device's JSON scanner only takes quoted strings
anyway, and an app can never ship a glyph the UI fonts lack -- anything
unrecognised falls back to the generic symbol. A bare side-loaded .lua has no
manifest and keeps that symbol too.

GPS Compass declares "icon":"gps", so it now shows the location pin the Map
tile uses.

Also corrected deploy/site/sdk.html, whose manifest table documented
"version", "min_api", "description" and "boards" -- the device has never
parsed any of them -- and described icon as "a single character".
