N-level folder nesting (1.2+)

Folders were flat — one level under each platform. Tartube supports
arbitrary nesting; now we do too.

## Schema

Add `folders.parent_id INTEGER REFERENCES folders(id) ON DELETE CASCADE`
via an idempotent migration (ALTER TABLE, swallow the duplicate-column
error on already-migrated DBs). NULL = top-level. Cascade means deleting
a parent removes its subtree's folder rows; member channels revert to
Unfiled via the existing channel_assignments cascade.

## DB

- FolderRecord gains parent_id (flows to both UIs via serde).
- set_folder_parent(id, parent) reparents, with a cycle guard: walks the
  ancestor chain of the proposed parent and refuses if `id` appears
  (you can't nest a folder inside its own descendant). Self-parent also
  rejected. Returns a friendly SQLITE_CONSTRAINT error the web layer
  maps to 400.

## API

POST /api/folders/:id/parent { parent_id } — reparent or null for top.

## Web UI

- Sidebar renders the folder tree recursively: each folder indents one
  step under its parent, member channels indent under their folder, and
  the count shown is the whole subtree. A seen-set guards against any
  malformed cycle in the data.
- Folder manager gains a per-row "parent" dropdown; choices that would
  cycle (self + descendants) are excluded.

## Desktop UI

- Channel-panel sidebar builds the same tree with an iterative DFS
  (depth-indented folder headers, subtree counts).
- Folder manager gains a parent ComboBox per row with the same
  cycle-exclusion.

Verified the migration runs against an existing real DB (parent_id added,
no data loss). 1 new test covers nesting + both cycle cases; 80 pass.
