BerryCore v0.82 — On-device AI bundled + Helper APK
BerryCore v0.82 bundles on-device AI (bcllm 1.2.1) in the main install and ships an updated BerryCore Helper APK for sideloading.

BerryCore AI (llama.cpp) is included in berrycore.zip as core package ai-bcllm-1.2.1.zip. After install, binaries live at:
