chore(release): merge dev into main

Introduce server-migrations.ts with a named-migration runner that tracks
applied migrations in a _migrations table. runMigrations(db) is called at
startup before routes, so additive schema changes (ALTER TABLE, new settings)
are applied once and skipped on subsequent restarts.

Update ARCHITECTURE.md: five inline edits + new §4.4 documenting the convention.

+### 4.4 Migration System
+
+Additive schema changes to live databases are handled by `server-migrations.ts`. The runner executes once at the start of `startServer()`, before routes or background jobs, and is synchronous (`better-sqlite3`).
+
+**How it works:**
+
+1. Creates (idempotently) a `_migrations` table: `id TEXT PRIMARY KEY, applied_at TEXT`.
+2. Iterates the `migrations` array in order. For each entry whose `id` is not in `_migrations`, runs `up(db)` inside a transaction and records the id on success.
+3. If `up()` throws, the transaction rolls back and the id is not recorded — the migration retries on the next start.
+4. Already-applied migrations are skipped forever.
+
+**Rules for adding a migration:**
+
+- Append to the end of the `migrations` array in `server-migrations.ts`. **Never reorder or remove entries.**
+- Use a unique, descriptive `id` — format: `NNNN_short_description` (e.g. `0001_bookings_add_color`).
+- Only additive DDL: `ALTER TABLE … ADD COLUMN`, `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS`, `INSERT OR IGNORE INTO settings`.
+- New default settings for **live DBs** go here. Day-0 seeds (fresh install) stay in `DEFAULT_SETTINGS` in `server-db.ts`.
+- New settings still need allow-listing in `PUT /api/settings` (and `SECRET_KEYS` if secret) — the migration only seeds the value.
+
+**Fresh-install behavior:** `server-db.ts` creates all baseline tables first (at module import). `runMigrations` then applies every migration in the array — safe because all migrations are additive over the baseline.
+
+**`_migrations` is excluded** from `/api/database/import` and `/api/database/info` (not in their explicit table lists) — migration state belongs to the current install, not the imported data.
