autosync toggle, configurable sync interval, 30-day session

- header Sync button now has a paired autosync toggle to its right —
  reads as one button with no inner seam (outer border only). Dot inside
  pulses once per actual sync (bursts on every backgroundSync /
  triggerSync / collab pollOnce via a new sync.pulse hook) so the user
  can see polls happen. Dot + data-autosync attribute persist the
  enabled state in localStorage; paused state stops both the
  CalDAV/relay background timer and the collab poll via a broadcast
  autosync.changed hook.
- hover polish: Sync regains a full accent border (the missing inner
  edge re-appears only on its hover); the toggle fills with solid
  accent as hover treatment so the pair never shows a half-outline.
- sync interval moved out of hardcode into a settings field under
  Settings → Relay: number input, 5s..3600s, default 15s (was 45s on
  caldav / 30s on collab). Changes broadcast via sync.interval.changed
  and restart both timers without reload.
- session cookie lifetime raised to 30 days with matching gc_maxlifetime
  and SameSite=Lax (was 0 / Strict — some users got kicked to login on
  every reload when gc cleaned up the /tmp/sess file or a cross-link
  return blocked the cookie).
- search button's kbd element was pushing the button ~3px taller than
  Sync; leading-none + tighter padding puts them on the same height.
