* feat: add project-level and user-level custom instructions

Implements #510 — editable custom instructions that get injected into
every model message, at both user level (Settings → Memory) and
project level (pencil icon in project header).

- Add customInstructions to Project, AppConfigPrefs contracts
- Add custom_instructions column migration to projects table
- Inject user + project instructions into system prompt (after memory,
  before design system; project-level wins on conflict)
- Add Settings textarea for user-level instructions
- Add inline editor bar in ProjectView for project-level instructions
- Sync user-level instructions through daemon app-config round-trip

* fix: address PR review — validation, draft reset, length limit

- Reset instructionsDraft on Cancel and toggle close (stale draft bug)
- Thread customInstructions through POST /api/projects create handler
- Add type + length validation (5000 chars) in PATCH handler
- Enforce length cap in app-config applyConfigValue
- Add maxLength={5000} to both UI textareas
- Resync draft via useEffect when editor is closed
- Remove stray run.sh from commit

* fix: address maintainer review — save race condition, precedence wording

- Make handleSaveInstructions async with await + revert on failure
- Add instructionsSaving state to disable Save/Cancel/textarea during save
- Clarify precedence wording with concrete example in both prompt composers
- UpdateProjectRequest already has customInstructions (verified)

* fix: use server-returned project in save handler, drop optimistic update

The previous optimistic-update + revert approach captured a stale project
snapshot in the useCallback closure. On failure, reverting with the captured
object could clobber unrelated project fields that changed during the
async request.

Switch to pessimistic update: wait for patchProject to succeed, then call
onProjectChange(result) with the server-returned project object. The
instructionsSaving flag disables the editor UI during the round-trip.

* fix: align create/PATCH validation for customInstructions

Create endpoint now rejects invalid types and >5000 char values with
400 instead of silently truncating, matching the PATCH handler behavior.
