[BUG] Bolt Cards and User Manager extensions 404 after upgrading from 0.9.4 to 0.10.4

[20a8vnf30]

Describe the bug I upgraded from LNbits 0.10.0 to 0.10.4, two of my four installed extensions failed to download. When starting up the log shows this:

The two offending extensions were also missing from the GUI. I was able to reinstall the extensions from the Manage Extensions GUI and the extension`s data (a bolt card, and a created user and their wallet) was still there.

Expected behavior Upgrading LNbits does not break installed extensions.

One possible scenario for this issue:

• user installs extension abc version 1.1 (works as expected)
• devs launch release extension abc version 1.2
• devs remove release files extension abc version 1.1
• user upgrades lnbits (docker instance?)
• lnbits tries to fetch extension abc version 1.1, but it is not found <-- therefore the above error
• user installs manually extension abc version 1.2 (works as expected)

There is also a low probability that GitHub had issues for a few seconds.

Keeping this issue open for a few weeks in case someone else experiences the same problems.

If downloading a newer version of an extension fails, I would prefer the older version not to be deleted yet so it can still be used.

@20a8vnf30 are you using docker? I'm just curious why the extension was deleted in the first place.

[20a8vnf30]

@motorina0 Im not using docker. My currenct LNbits instal was done through poetry, the previous version was installed with venv.
