Libation's releases are ReadyToRun, so a Serilog reference resolves lazily
when the line holding it runs. An install folder whose Serilog.dll is missing
or older than the build therefore threw inside the very catch blocks that were
meant to report the problem, which destroyed the original exception and aborted
the in-app upgrade recovery before it could roll anything back.
Add StartupLog: a Serilog-free, never-throwing buffer for the window before
ConfigureLogging runs, replayed into Serilog once logging exists. Move the
pre-logging call sites onto it, including the crash-message and crash-dialog
paths that run precisely when the install is broken.
Those messages were silent before this change: Serilog.Log.Logger is still
Serilog's silent logger until App.RunMigrations. They now reach the log file.

Commit 065118cf deleted Migrations.migrate_to_v11_5_0, which despite its
name ran on every startup and was the only code that read
QuickFilters.json into QuickFilters.InMemoryState. Since v13.7.6, saved
quick filters were never loaded after a restart, and adding a new filter
overwrote the file.
Make QuickFilters load its state lazily from disk on first access so it
no longer depends on a startup hook. Restore the pre-v11.5.0 format
fallback (plain string filters without names) that the deleted migration
provided, and add regression tests covering load formats and
restart persistence.
