refactor: Switch module list from Wiki markdown to JSON API

Replace Wiki markdown parsing with direct JSON API consumption from
modules.magicmirror.builders for improved reliability.

- Update source to https://modules.magicmirror.builders/data/modules.json
- Rewrite parseList() for JSON instead of regex markdown parsing
- Auto-download modules.json if missing

Solves #336.
