Verified post-install shell syntax, package inclusion, git diff --check, and enabling the real Arch paccache.timer unit in an isolated temporary root. systemctl --root is-enabled returns enabled. Full installer acceptance remains for headless review.

Closes #34

Include pacman-contrib and enable its weekly paccache.timer during installation. The upstream default keeps the latest three versions per package, preventing unbounded cache growth while retaining rollback packages. Verified post-install shell syntax, package inclusion, git diff --check, and enabling the real Arch paccache.timer unit in an isolated temporary root. systemctl --root is-enabled returns enabled. Full installer acceptance remains for headless review. Closes #34

Independent source review PASS at 03f9df96cc. The manifest includes pacman-contrib once and the post-install loop enables paccache.timer. Independently extracted the real Arch pacman-contrib timer and service into a disposable root, enabled the timer, and systemctl --root is-enabled returned enabled. Upstream timer is weekly and persistent. Shell syntax and diff check pass. No CI statuses are configured. Full Calamares installation was not repeated.
