Research direction

Start at the installation cancellation flow and trace where remotes are added. Verify the cancel path and confirm that cancelling a partial installation leaves the system without any remotes added by Sideload.

Description

Needs Design Priority: Wishlist

If I start to install an app and then have second thoughts and cancel it partway through, Sideload should probably roll back any added remotes so that the system is not affected.
