The GUI exposed three networking modes: public server, manual, and standalone. In practice EasyTier does not have a server/client role distinction here. Those options only mapped to different peer bootstrap shapes, which made the product model misleading and pushed users toward a non-existent "public server" concept.
This change rewrites the shared configuration UX around initial nodes. Users now add or remove one or more initial node URLs directly, and the UI explains that EasyTier networking works like plugging in a cable: once a node connects to one or more existing nodes, it can join the mesh. Initial nodes may be self-hosted or shared by others.
To preserve compatibility, the frontend keeps the legacy fields and adds normalization helpers in the shared NetworkConfig layer. Old configs are read as initial_node_urls, while saves, runs, validation, config generation, and persisted GUI config sync still denormalize back into the current backend shape: zero initial nodes -> Standalone, one -> PublicServer, many -> Manual. This avoids any proto or backend API change while making old saved configs and imported TOML files load cleanly in the new UI.
Code changes:
- add initial_node_urls plus normalize/denormalize helpers in the shared frontend NetworkConfig model
- remove the mode switch and public-server/manual specific inputs from the shared Config component and replace them with a single initial-node list plus explanatory copy
- update Chinese and English locale strings for the new terminology
- normalize configs received from GUI/web backends and denormalize them before outbound API calls
- normalize GUI save-config events before storing them in localStorage so legacy payloads remain editable under the new model
This PR fundamentally restructures the EasyTier GUI, introducing support for service mode and remote mode, transforming it from a simple desktop application into a powerful network management terminal. This change allows users to persistently run the EasyTier core as a background service or remotely manage multiple EasyTier instances, greatly improving deployment flexibility and manageability.
* refactor(gui): refactor gui to use RemoteClient trait and RemoteManagement component
* feat(gui): Add network config saving and refactor RemoteManagement
1. add FOREGROUND_SERVICE related code, connection not to be **blocked by android system** when apps running in background
2. no_tun mode not enabling vpnservice, makeing other app to use vpnservice

* add method to create NetworkConfig from TomlConfigLoader
* allow web export/import toml config file and gui edit toml config
* Extract the configuration file dialog into a separate component and allow direct editing of the configuration file on the web
also some improvements:
1. add magic dns option in gui.
2. allow icmp proxy fail on android
3. when no_tun is enabled, android do not start vpn service

This patch implement a restful server without any auth.
usage:
```bash
# run easytier-web, which acts as an gateway and registry for all easytier-core
$> easytier-web
# run easytier-core and connect to easytier-web with a token
$> easytier-core --config-server udp://127.0.0.1:22020/fdsafdsa
# use restful api to list session
$> curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X GET 127.0.0.1:11211/api/v1/sessions

# use restful api to run a network instance

* fix peer rpc stop working because of mpsc tunnel close unexpectedly
* fix gui:
1. allow set network prefix for virtual ipv4
2. fix android crash
3. fix subnet proxy cannot be set on android
in the old behavior, the flags is not set, and it will be generated as default value in the first read. so the default value for the latency_first will be set to true according to the Default settings to Flag.
so the Vue code init the latency first to true.
