Restores RuStore update checks.
What broke RuStore stopped reporting any updates at all. Its API began answering HTTP 419 with an empty body for both the batch update check and the app-details endpoint, while search carried on working — so the source quietly showed nothing rather than reporting a problem.
Cause RuStore tightened validation of the ruStoreVerCode request header, and it turns out to be checked as a ceiling rather than a minimum: probing the live API shows every value below 1105002 is accepted (247, 1000, 11000, 100000, 1105000 and 1105001 all return 200), while 1105002 — exactly the value this app was sending — and anything above it is refused.
Lowering the header to 1105001 restores everything: app details, the batch update check and the download-link endpoint were all re-verified against the live API.
Worth recording for anyone hitting the same wall: this is not a rate limit. The 419 came back on every single request, while a neighbouring header value succeeded in the same second. And raising the version number — the intuitive reaction, and what the old code comment advised — is exactly what keeps it broken
