Revert to v0.1.192 - fix agent hang issue

- Remove zbus dependency from agent
- Replace D-Bus Connection calls with systemctl show commands
- Fix agent hang by eliminating blocking D-Bus operations
- get_unit_property now uses systemctl show with property flags
- Memory, disk usage, and nginx config queries use systemctl
- Simpler, more reliable service monitoring

 - ✅ Backward compatibility via bridge conversion to existing UI widgets
 - ✅ All string parsing bugs eliminated
 
-### Cached Collector Architecture (✅ IMPLEMENTED)
-
-**Problem:** Blocking collectors prevent timely ZMQ transmission, causing false "host offline" alerts.
-
-**Previous (Sequential Blocking):**
-```
-Every 1 second:
-  └─ collect_all_data() [BLOCKS for 2-10+ seconds]
-      ├─ CPU (fast: 10ms)
-      ├─ Memory (fast: 20ms)
-      ├─ Disk SMART (slow: 3s per drive × 4 drives = 12s)
-      ├─ Service disk usage (slow: 2-8s per service)
-      └─ Docker (medium: 500ms)
-  └─ send_via_zmq()  [Only after ALL collection completes]
-
-Result: If any collector takes >10s → "host offline" false alert
-```
-
-**New (Cached Independent Collectors):**
-```
-Shared Cache: Arc<RwLock<AgentData>>
-
-Background Collectors (independent async tasks):
-├─ Fast collectors (CPU, RAM, Network)
-│   └─ Update cache every 1 second
-├─ Medium collectors (Services, Docker)
-│   └─ Update cache every 5 seconds
-└─ Slow collectors (Disk usage, SMART data)
-    └─ Update cache every 60 seconds
-
-ZMQ Sender (separate async task):
-Every 1 second:
-  └─ Read current cache
-  └─ Send via ZMQ [Always instant, never blocked]
-```
-
-**Benefits:**
-- ✅ ZMQ sends every 1 second regardless of collector speed
-- ✅ No false "host offline" alerts from slow collectors
-- ✅ Different update rates for different metrics (CPU=1s, SMART=60s)
-- ✅ System stays responsive even with slow operations
-- ✅ Slow collectors can use longer timeouts without blocking
-
-**Implementation Details:**
-- **Shared cache**: `Arc<RwLock<AgentData>>` initialized at agent startup
-- **Collector intervals**: Fully configurable via NixOS config (`interval_seconds` per collector)
-  - Recommended: Fast (1-10s): CPU, Memory, Network
-  - Recommended: Medium (30-60s): Backup, NixOS
-  - Recommended: Slow (60-300s): Disk, Systemd
-- **Independent tasks**: Each collector spawned as separate tokio task in `Agent::new()`
-- **Cache updates**: Collectors acquire write lock → update → release immediately
-- **ZMQ sender**: Main loop reads cache every `collection_interval_seconds` and broadcasts
-- **Notification check**: Runs every `notifications.check_interval_seconds`
-- **Lock strategy**: Short-lived write locks prevent blocking, read locks for transmission
-- **Stale data**: Acceptable for slow-changing metrics (SMART data, disk usage)
-
-**Configuration (NixOS):**
-All intervals and timeouts configurable in `services/cm-dashboard.nix`:
-
-Collection Intervals:
-- `collectors.cpu.interval_seconds` (default: 10s)
-- `collectors.memory.interval_seconds` (default: 2s)
-- `collectors.disk.interval_seconds` (default: 300s)
-- `collectors.systemd.interval_seconds` (default: 10s)
-- `collectors.backup.interval_seconds` (default: 60s)
-- `collectors.network.interval_seconds` (default: 10s)
-- `collectors.nixos.interval_seconds` (default: 60s)
-- `notifications.check_interval_seconds` (default: 30s)
-- `collection_interval_seconds` - ZMQ transmission rate (default: 2s)
-
-Command Timeouts (prevent resource leaks from hung commands):
-- `collectors.disk.command_timeout_seconds` (default: 30s) - lsblk, smartctl, etc.
-- `collectors.systemd.command_timeout_seconds` (default: 15s) - systemctl, docker, du
-- `collectors.network.command_timeout_seconds` (default: 10s) - ip route, ip addr
-
-**Code Locations:**
-- agent/src/agent.rs:59-133 - Collector task spawning
-- agent/src/agent.rs:151-179 - Independent collector task runner
-- agent/src/agent.rs:199-207 - ZMQ sender in main loop
-
 ### Maintenance Mode
 
 - Agent checks for `/tmp/cm-maintenance` file before sending notifications
