Phase 2: web front end

axum served from inside the daemon so it reads SQLite and the event bus
directly: browse feeds, read show notes, play with seeking, download and
delete files, mark read/flag, and edit feed settings.

Config is now hot-reloadable (Ctx.cfg behind RwLock<Arc<Config>>), so UI
edits apply without a daemon restart. Access is a shared token minted from
/dev/urandom, carried in a cookie because an <audio> element cannot send
headers. Show notes are untrusted feed HTML and are sanitized with ammonia
server-side.

read/flagged finally have a writer, which retention has needed since it
started ordering by them.
