maxjivi05 342d2e7f20 fix: the Steam client download resumes, retries and shows megabytes
A first run downloads the native client, about 360 MB in 17 parts, before
anything is on screen. The script ran plain `curl -fsSL` per part: no
timeout, no retry, no progress. A stalled connection could wait for ever
on "downloading Steam: bins_linuxarm64_linuxarm64 (2/17)" (a 110 MB part),
a failed one ended the session and threw away everything fetched, and
the loading screen said "~1-2 min" while counting parts, not bytes.

Parts now go to package/droiddeck-download and stay there until the client
is installed. Each one resumes from the bytes on disk (curl -C -), a
transfer under 4 KB/s for a minute is dropped and resumed, attempts
without progress back off 5-30 s before giving up, and a finished part is
marked unpacked so a later session skips it. Bytes that fail their
checksum are fetched whole again; a server that will not resume starts the
part over; parts left for another client version are dropped. A repair
redoes every part once and keeps what an interrupted repair redid.

Every 5 s the step line carries megabytes overall ("(2/17), 45 of 360
MB"), which the loading screen shows as "45 / 360 MB" with the bar
following the bytes. The session's step no longer promises 1-2 minutes.
