Pure ComfyUI Node Registry nodes missing 'update-state' field — update button never appears - UPDATE: The code fix I tried worked. :)

[seeker-ktf]

I have published 2 nodes only through the ComfyUI Registry (not in custom-node-list.json). They install fine but after I updated the registry they never show an update button in the Manager UI, even when a newer version is available on the registry. If I click on "Switch ver" I can select it, but no user is going to find that.

To reproduce:

1. Publish a node only through the registry (no PR to custom-node-list.json)
2. Install it through Manager
3. Publish a new version to the registry
4. Restart ComfyUI — no update button appears
5. Hit /customnode/getlist?mode=cache&channel=default — the node has updatable: true but no update-state field

I think that it's because 'update-state' is never updated for CNR nodes. It only updates for custom-node-list nodes. Around line ~3215 where the CNR node is updates 'updatable' bit not 'update-state'

if(nodeItem['update-state'] == "true") {
    nodeItem.action = 'updatable';
}

That last part is a guess but it's different from the part that updates custom-node-list nodes so I took a shot.

Using ComfyUI-Manager 3.0.1

Actually, I just added

item['update-state'] = 'true' if updatable else 'false'

at line 3215 of my local version of manager_core.py and it fixed the problem. It goes right under:

            item = dict(author=author, title=title, reference=reference, repository=repository, install_type=install_type,
                        description=description, state=state, updatable=updatable, version=ver)             

I am embarrassed to say that github is a mystery to me or I'd try to file this the "correct" way.
