feat(backend)!: run on Postgres with a migration-owned schema (#28)

Swap modernc.org/sqlite for jackc/pgx/v5 with no observable change:
same endpoints, same wire format, same updated_at ordering rule.

The schema now comes from numbered SQL embedded in the binary and
applied on startup, one transaction each, recorded in
schema_migrations. That replaces two pieces of SQLite-era machinery,
both deleted rather than ported: the column probing (Postgres has ADD
COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS, and there is no legacy database left to probe)
and the Asura key rewrite, which has run clean on every start for
months now that the userscripts strip build hashes before writing. Its
regexp survives as latest.asuraBuildHash, where the poller still needs
it to scope chapter links to a series whose slug carries a rotating
hash.

Types get real: favorite is a boolean, chapter numbers double
precision, timestamps stay unix-ms bigint. SQLite's null-safe IS NOT
becomes IS DISTINCT FROM, which is what implements the rule that only
reading progress reorders a list. Inside COALESCE/NULLIF the status
and kind parameters need an explicit ::text -- there is no target
column to infer from and Postgres refuses to guess.

Tests lose their free t.TempDir() database, so Docker is now a hard
prerequisite for `go test ./...`: internal/pgtest starts one
postgres:17-alpine per test binary and hands each test a database of
its own.

Also lands CONTEXT.md and the four ADRs written while scoping #18.

BREAKING CHANGE: DB_PATH is retired for DATABASE_URL, which is
required and has no default. Compose gains a postgres service on an
internal network with its own volume; POSTGRES_PASSWORD joins .env.
The old bookmarks-data volume is deliberately left undeclared so
`docker compose down -v` cannot take the pre-migration database with
it. main is not deployable until #25 and #26 land.

Closes #20

# The wire format stays flat and deliberately does not mirror the schema
Status: accepted
Storage splits a tracked series across two tables (ADR-0003), but `GET /bookmarks` and
`PUT /bookmarks/{key}` keep emitting and accepting one **flat** JSON object with `title`,
`cover`, `last_chapter` and `latest_chapter` as siblings — exactly the shape they had
when there was one table. The server joins on the way out and decomposes on the way in.
## Why a future reader will find this surprising
The obvious move after splitting a table is to nest the JSON to match. Don't "fix" this.
**A nested payload would have broken every installed userscript instantly.** Scripts read
`b.title` directly; moving it to `b.series.title` yields `undefined` — no error, just
blank rows and a New Chapter signal that silently reports nothing forever. Because
Violentmonkey updates roughly once a day per device, the migration relies on old scripts
continuing to work during a 14-day grace window. A nested format and that grace window
are mutually exclusive.
**It is also the better contract independently of compatibility.** A client rendering one
row needs the title and the reading position together; nesting exports the re-stitching
to every browser to mirror a decision about disk layout it should not know about. Keeping
them separate lets storage change again later without a client release — which is the
whole reason this ADR is worth the paragraph.
## Consequence
The flat shape is a contract, not an implementation detail. Changing the storage schema
must not change it. It follows the rule already in force for `updated_at`: the server
owns the truth and returns the row **as stored**, and clients adopt the response rather
than their own payload.
