ci: the family's build pipeline, and PKGVER by export

Brings this manifest to the shape the sibling services share.

cacher is installed by install.sh instead of a raw curl of the binary, in
two tasks: install.sh appends its PATH export to ~/.buildenv, which only
the next task sources. The old fetch had no -f, so an HTTP error body was
written to ~/.local/bin/cacher and chmod +x'd; the installer verifies
against checksums.txt.

The version task drops the sed of the tracked APKBUILD. Measured on
go1.26.5, rewriting a tracked file sets vcs.modified=true and Go stamps
+dirty into Main.Version for the whole abuild run, so PKGVER is exported
and APKBUILD reads pkgver="${PKGVER:-0.0.0}". One git describe decides
it: the tag, the tag plus commits, or the commit count. Tags join
allow-refs so pushing v0.9.0 produces the 0.9.0 apk. The export alone is
not enough — abuild works inside the checkout and puts src/, pkg/ and
GOTMPDIR=tmp/ there, so .gitignore covers all three.

cache_restore takes --optional rather than || true, which also swallowed
bad credentials and a dead bucket, and gains the half-restored module
cache repair block. cache_save moves after publish so an S3 hiccup cannot
strand a good apk, and loses its cacher exists guards: dir upload already
skips a present key. publish gains the no-credentials gate.

The stylesheet is now built in CI: sassc and minify, the scss task that
materializes the shared partials no apk ships, make css before the
compile and make check-css after it. The committed
web/static/main.min.79713f25.css stays tracked for now — build() prints
git status and the digest so the first CI run says whether the pipeline
reproduces those bytes, and dropping it from the index is a second step.

package() calls make install-files. abuild runs it in a fresh process
that never called build(), so make install would relink the binary from a
cold cache and ship a compilation nothing had checked.

Reasoning lives in docs/ci.md: the manifest is a varchar(16384) and a
branch over the cap gets no CI at all

login: ecore's cookie decoder, which validates the name ours did not

authz/identity.go was the fifth copy of a decode the instance has one of,
and it was one of the two that validated nothing: whatever name a sealed
payload carried went on to the GraphQL viewer field, the chrome's nav and
every log line the request produced. login.ValidName refuses it, and
there is no spelling of the API that turns the check off.

Gone with it: CookieName, UsernameFromRequest, Middleware, ForContext and
the ctxKey, plus identity_test.go, whose round-trip, tilde-stripping and
garbage-cookie cases are ecore's tests now. The Middleware becomes
login.Optional() — this service refuses nobody, git.sr.ht decides what an
anonymous viewer may see — and the default validator is kept rather than
core.ValidOwner, which is lowercase-only and would log a real account out
of compare alone.

The one behaviour change a viewer could notice: a cookie whose name
carries a '/', a control byte or a non-ASCII letter now reads as
anonymous instead of as that name.

docs: spec for inline code comments on diffs

Draft proposal for line-anchored comment threads on the commit and compare
pages. Records the key finding that storage is already available through
sr-ht-core (Postgres via the database package + connection-string), that the
service is stateless by choice rather than by limitation, and that @pierre/diffs
already provides the thread UI primitives (DiffLineAnnotation + renderAnnotation
+ onDiffLineClick). Covers the anchoring model, schema, authz reuse, HTTP API,
frontend wiring, config, and a commit-first phasing.
