Subject: [PATCH] Huntarr: add build-essential for native pip dependencies
 (#12126)

* fix(huntarr): add build-essential for native pip dependencies

Some Python packages in requirements.txt need a C++ compiler for
native extensions. Without build-essential the uv pip install
step fails with 'command c++ not found'.

Closes #12117

* Change apt-get to apt for installing dependencies

* Ensure git dependency before updating Huntarr

Added dependency check for git before fetching and deploying the GitHub release.

* drunk
