Description

The Cache preferences page shows "Current cache size: Unknown" with a "Check Now" button. The "Unknown" label reads like a bug rather than an unchecked state.

Proposed Fix

Auto-check cache size when the Cache page is opened (or at least on first visit per session)
If auto-check is too slow, change the label from "Unknown" to "—" or "Not checked" in a dimmer color (Subtext0 #a6adc8) to indicate it's an intentional unloaded state

Component: src/Gui/ — Preferences dialog
