chore(package.json): upgrade bitsocial-react-hooks, stop yarn install from depending on kubo postinstall (#1090)

Removes the direct `kubo` install-time dependency and switches Electron dev to the repo-managed Kubo downloader in `electron/start-ipfs.js`. This keeps the hooks upgrade in place while avoiding the `dist.ipfs.tech` timeout during `yarn install`.
