SnapOtter f86ef124c2 fix: grant admin role to anonymous user and add DEFAULT_TOOL_VIEW env var
When AUTH_ENABLED=false, the anonymous user was assigned the "user" role
which lacks settings:write permission, making all settings saves return
403. Since no admin exists when auth is disabled, settings were
permanently read-only. Promote the anonymous user to "admin" so the
single user has full control of the instance.

Also adds DEFAULT_TOOL_VIEW env var (sidebar|fullscreen) following the
existing DEFAULT_THEME pattern, seeded via ensureDefaultSettings() on
first boot.

Closes #135

# Configuration
All configuration is done through environment variables. Every variable has a sensible default, so SnapOtter works out of the box without setting any of them.
## Environment variables
### Server

## Docker example
```yaml
services:
SnapOtter:
image: snapotter/snapotter:latest
ports:
- "1349:1349"
volumes:
- SnapOtter-data:/data
- SnapOtter-workspace:/tmp/workspace
environment:
- AUTH_ENABLED=true
- DEFAULT_USERNAME=admin
- DEFAULT_PASSWORD=changeme
- MAX_UPLOAD_SIZE_MB=200
- CONCURRENT_JOBS=4
- FILE_MAX_AGE_HOURS=12
restart: unless-stopped
```
## Volumes
The Docker container uses two volumes:
- `/data` -- Persistent storage for the SQLite database and user files. Mount this to keep users, API keys, saved pipelines, and uploaded images across container restarts.
- `/tmp/workspace` -- Temporary storage for images being processed. This can be ephemeral, but mounting it avoids filling up the container's writable layer.
