feat: Authentik SSO, nav systems, project pages, and schema fixes

Auth & SSO
- Wire Authentik (auth.aethex.tech) as OIDC PKCE SSO provider
- Server-side only flow with HMAC-signed stateless state token
- Account linking via authentik_sub in user metadata
- AeThex ID connection card in Dashboard connections tab
- Unlink endpoint POST /api/auth/authentik/unlink
- Fix node:https helper to bypass undici DNS bug on Node 18
- Fix resolv.conf to use 1.1.1.1/8.8.8.8 in container

Schema & types
- Regenerate database.types.ts from live Supabase schema (23k lines)
- Fix 511 TypeScript errors caused by stale 582-line types file
- Fix UserProfile import in aethex-database-adapter.ts
- Add notifications migration (title, message, read columns)

Server fixes
- Remove badge_color from achievements seed/upsert (column doesn't exist)
- Rename name→title, add slug field in achievements seed
- Remove email from all user_profiles select queries (column doesn't exist)
- Fix email-based achievement target lookup via auth.admin.listUsers
- Add GET /api/projects/:projectId endpoint
- Fix import.meta.dirname → fileURLToPath for Node 18 compatibility
- Expose VITE_APP_VERSION from package.json at build time

Navigation systems
- DevPlatformNav: reorganize into Learn/Build grouped dropdowns with descriptions
- Migrate all 11 dev-platform pages from main Layout to DevPlatformLayout
- Remove dead isDevMode context nav swap from main Layout
- EthosLayout: purple-accented tab bar (Library, Artists, Licensing, Settings)
  with member-only gating and guest CTA — migrate 4 Ethos pages
- GameForgeLayout: orange-branded sidebar with Studio section and lock icons
  for unauthenticated users — migrate GameForge + GameForgeDashboard
- SysBar: live latency ping, status dot (green/yellow/red), real version

Layout dropdown
- Role-gate Admin (owner/admin/founder only) and Internal Docs (+ staff)
- Add Internal section label with separator
- Fix settings link from /dashboard?tab=profile#settings to /dashboard?tab=settings

Project pages
- Add ProjectDetail page at /projects/:projectId
