Subject: [PATCH] refactor: move welcome modal logic to AppStateService

The logic for deciding whether to show the welcome modal has been moved from `app.ts` to `AppStateService.ts`. The `getShowWelcomeDialog` function now accepts a boolean indicating whether a restore point exists and returns `false` if it does. This keeps the business logic out of the main application file and in the relevant service.
