051169a18a Documentation, and make a fresh clone actually work
Docs
- docs/ARCHITECTURE.md: how the pieces fit and why. The request path, the six
  enforced layers, the data model, the scanner, the job queue, direct-play
  playback, and the three protocol surfaces over one application.
- docs/decisions/: seven ADRs with the alternatives that were rejected —
  SQLite-with-a-seam, direct-play-only, mark-missing-never-delete, the modular
  monolith, the one item-access chokepoint, the table-backed queue, and
  fixed-width timestamps.
- README: the layout section was stale (it predated catalog, home, scanner,
  providers, engine, probe, playback, apitoken, arch and the dto packages) and
  now lists what exists, plus links to the new docs.

Two real bugs, both found by verifying the docs instead of trusting them

1. The CLI could not run on a fresh install. `Config.Validate` created the data
   and config directories, but the CLI never called it, so `vellum user add` —
   the recovery path when you are locked out — failed with "unable to open
   database file" until the server had booted at least once. Split the directory
   creation into `Config.EnsureDirs`, call it from the CLI, and keep the media
   root check out of it: an admin command must not fail because a library is
   unmounted. The CLI tests now point DBPath inside DataDir, exactly as
   LoadConfig derives it, so they exercise the fresh-install path; removing
   EnsureDirs fails three of them.

2. A fresh clone could not build at all. `//go:embed all:dist` fails to compile
   when web/dist is absent, and web/.gitignore expected a `dist/.gitkeep` that
   was never created. Added it, so a clone builds and the server logs
   "web UI not embedded; run the frontend build to include it" — the intended
   behaviour for someone who only wants the API.

Also: the httpapi tests depended on a built frontend and FAILED rather than
skipping, so the suite was red on any fresh clone. findAsset and readAsset now
skip with a message naming the missing step. They still RUN when a bundle is
present (verified: zero skips here), so they have not been quietly disabled.

Verified from a simulated clone of tracked files only: go build exit 0, 25
packages pass, the server boots and applies all 12 migrations, and the CLI
creates a user and takes a backup. gofmt clean, vet exit 0, svelte-check 0/0.

f680e1d9f6 Beta blockers: async scans, admin CLI, deploy docs, pagination, password UI
Five tasks, four delegated to agents on disjoint files and one on the critical
path. Board and verification log: ~/.opencode/plan/vellum-beta-tasks.md

T1 Async scans (coordinator)
- migration 0007 adds ref_id + result to jobs, indexed by (kind, ref_id, id),
  so a job can be found by what it operates on and can report back.
- jobs: EnqueueRef, JobID(ctx) so a handler can attach a result, SetResult.
- POST /libraries/{id}/scan now enqueues and returns 202; a real library takes
  longer than any request timeout, and a hanging request looks like a broken
  server. GET /libraries/{id}/scan/status reports the latest run.
- Libraries.svelte polls and shows "Scanning…" instead of freezing.

T2 Admin CLI (agent)
- internal/cli: `user add|passwd|list`, `backup <path>` via VACUUM INTO, with
  tests. Wired into main.go, which the coordinator kept.

T3 Deploy (agent)
- compose.yml now mounts all six media kinds read-only with :z and carries the
  metadata env keys. DEPLOY.md covers volumes, SELinux, admin bootstrap, TLS,
  backup and upgrade.

T4 Pagination (agent)
- GET /items takes offset and returns total; Browse loads 60 at a time with
  "Load more" and "Showing X of Y" instead of silently truncating at 300.

T5 Password change UI (agent)
- A Password section in Settings with validation, busy and success states.

Verified end to end: scan returns 202 in 0.7 ms and polls to done; the CLI
created a user, changed a password, and produced a complete 240 KB backup while
the server ran; pagination reports total 8 and pages correctly; compose parses
with every mount :z. go vet and 14 test packages pass; svelte-check 0/0.
