Bootstrap cache refresh reports whether it succeeded

Refreshing cached bootstrap data can now skip clearing render caches, avoiding a redraw.

What

The routine that fetches and persists bootstrap data now returns a boolean and takes a keepRenderCaches option, defaulting to false, so a caller can update the on-disk caches without clearing render caches and forcing a re-render. It returns false when a concurrent credential change superseded the write.

Evidence

keepRenderCaches

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
