chore(release): 1.30.3-rc.1 [skip ci]

Backend returned { error: message } on 400 but frontend expected { message }.
catchInternal swallowed Axios errors and returned undefined, causing a
generic 'An internal error occurred' message instead of the real reason
(already installed, already in progress, not found).

- Fix 400 response shape to { success: false, message } in controller
- Replace catchInternal with direct error handling in installService,
  affectService, and forceReinstallService API methods
- Extract error.response.data.message from Axios errors so callers
  see the actual server message

 Project N.O.M.A.D. is now installed on your device! Open a browser and navigate to `http://localhost:8080` (or `http://DEVICE_IP:8080`) to start exploring!
 
+For a complete step-by-step walkthrough (including Ubuntu installation), see the [Installation Guide](https://www.projectnomad.us/install).

 ### Advanced Installation
 For more control over the installation process, copy and paste the [Docker Compose template](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Crosstalk-Solutions/project-nomad/refs/heads/main/install/management_compose.yaml) into a `docker-compose.yml` file and customize it to your liking (be sure to replace any placeholders with your actual values). Then, run `docker compose up -d` to start the Command Center and its dependencies. Note: this method is recommended for advanced users only, as it requires familiarity with Docker and manual configuration before starting.
