Auto-enable bundled proxy on first launch; drop in-app download button

- ApplicationLoader now enables a bundled VLESS proxy on a truly fresh
  install (one-time, guarded by builtin_proxy_autoenabled) so the app can
  connect even when plain Telegram is blocked; existing users' choices are
  left untouched
- Remove the 'Download FoxiGram' settings row (the app is already
  installed) and its strings; drop the in-app download mention from READMEs
