Test Update V:0.0.41.9

Added
- Added a Restore Defaults button to Display Settings. After confirmation, defaults are applied and saved immediately, with graphics quality reset to the current device's automatic recommendation.

Improvements
- Optimized thruster effects on Steam Deck, using lightweight versions by default to reduce their performance cost.
- Improved automatic graphics recommendations: desktop PCs select quality based on hardware, while Steam Deck uses a dedicated preset. Graphics preferences are saved separately for each device profile.
- Improved ability feedback: a feedback sound now plays when an ability slot is empty or an ability cannot be activated due to cooldown, charge, or targeting requirements.

Fixes
- Fixed missing thruster effects on Riptide.
- Fixed friend-or-foe checks that could fail when ammunition hit or exploded after its source ship had been destroyed.
- Fixed errors when switching weapons with no selectable weapons, and delayed input updates after weapon changes.
- Fixed firing errors on some turrets when their weapons were not yet ready or had already been removed.
- Fixed damage and on-hit effects potentially using incorrect target data when combat effects triggered other effects in succession.
- Fixed autosave errors that could occur when closing tutorial or settings screens before starting or loading a game.
