feat: replace app icon with new Laputa cloud logo

Tabs stored a snapshot of VaultEntry at open time. When updateEntry()
changed vault.entries (e.g. trashing a note), the active tab's entry
stayed stale, so the banner never appeared until the note was reopened.

Add a useEffect that syncs tab entries with vault.entries whenever the
vault state changes, using reference equality to skip unchanged entries.
