Subject: [PATCH 2/2] fix: replace curl | bash with gh extension install in
 install.md

- Make `gh extension install github/gh-aw` the primary install method
- Move curl-based install to collapsible fallback with download-then-execute
- Use `-f` flag (fail on HTTP errors), remove `-s` (silent) flag
- Update troubleshooting section reference

Fixes #12
