- Add gimp, audacity, vlc (media applications)
- Add insync, protonmail-bridge (sync/communication)
- Add multimarkdown, proselint (text processing)

Package updates:
- Update man → man-db (current package name)
- Update pandoc → pandoc-cli (current package name)

Configuration updates:
- Enable topgrade git repo updates for ~/code/ only
- Add inbox/ directory to .gitignore
