Annotations: decouple source from sync target + live Kobo capture + PDF/CBZ overlays

Four-part annotation hardening that closes the H1 phase and unlocks the next round of annotation features.

• Decouple source from sync target. The kobo_annotation_sync table is now annotation, and a new annotation_sync_target table tracks per-destination sync state with a clean state machine. The H1-era source-attribution bug is fixed — annotations now correctly record where they originated (Kobo, web reader, KOReader) instead of being labeled hardcover whenever they happened to pass through the Hardcover pipeline.
• Live Kobo capture works even when Hardcover is off. Annotations sync to your local library whenever Kobo sync is on and you're authenticated. Soft-delete + recovery handled.
• PDF reader overlays. Imported highlights now render as color-coded overlays on PDF pages, scaling correctly with zoom.
• CBR/CBZ comic badges. Page-level annotations show as a floating badge with note count + color when the current page has notes.

Migration safety

The schema migration is transactional, idempotent, sanity-gated, and bit-exact preservation has been verified across a 5000-row test fixture. Existing annotations are preserved exactly. The pre-existing rolling-3 annotation-backup snapshots (shipped in v4.0.81) cover every annotation before this migration runs.

What's not in this release

Text-select-to-create UI in the PDF reader, click-to-tag UI in the comic reader, and async sync workers are tracked as follow-up PRs. The rendering substrate is in place; the create UIs come next.
