feat(chain): multi-device registry (v2.2.0-alpha1)

PR #1 of the multi-device roadmap. Adds per-device X25519 keys registered
on-chain so senders can fan out envelopes across all of a recipient's
physical devices — fixes the single-device limitation where a second
phone / desktop loses messages as soon as the first one reads them.

Chain (blockchain/):
  - New event types LINK_DEVICE / UNLINK_DEVICE, signed by the identity's
    master Ed25519.
  - LinkDevicePayload {x25519_pub_key, device_name} +
    UnlinkDevicePayload {x25519_pub_key} on the wire.
  - State: prefixDevice + x25519_pub → DeviceRecord{owner, name,
    added_at, revoked_at?}; reverse index prefixDevicesByOwner for
    O(k) listing. Revoke is a soft-delete — the row stays as a visible
    tombstone so offline clients can detect their own revocation and
    wipe local state.
  - MaxDevicesPerOwner = 10 slot cap; MaxDeviceNameLen = 64.
  - Strict lowercase-hex validation on x25519_pub so clients can't
    desync on letter case.
  - Same-owner re-link is a rename/refresh (recreates reverse index too
    — needed after a revoke).
  - Chain.DevicesOf(master_pub) returns the active records; empty slice
    for legacy identities so senders can fall back to IdentityInfo.X25519Pub.

HTTP (node/):
  - GET /api/devices/{master_pub_or_addr} — returns {master_pub, count,
    devices[]}. Revoked records filtered out.
  - /api/identity/{pub} gains `device_count` so senders can decide
    upfront whether to fan out or take the legacy path.

Tests (blockchain/devices_test.go):
  - Happy paths (1, 3 devices), foreign-owner rejection, same-owner
    refresh after revoke, unlink removes from active set,
    foreign-signer unlink rejection, idempotent double-unlink,
    malformed pub/name rejection, MaxDevices cap + recovery after
    unlink frees a slot, empty list for unknown master.

Also in this commit:
  - deploy/single/join.sh — convenience script operators have been
    iterating on in this session (joiner-node bring-up + firewall
    port patching + Caddy opt-out).
  - client-app/app.json — `usesCleartextTraffic: true` on Android so
    installed APKs can talk to http:// dev nodes without TLS.

See docs/ROADMAP.md for PRs #2..#4 (client fan-out, pairing flow,
desktop Electron shell).

+## Поднятие ноды — пошагово
+
+Ниже — полный минимум для двух сценариев, которые покрывают 99% случаев:
+**первая нода сети** (genesis) и **присоединение к существующей сети**.
+Все флаги читаются также из соответствующего `DCHAIN_*` env-var (CLI > env > default).
+
+### Шаг 1. Ключи
+
+```bash
+# Ключ identity ноды (Ed25519 — подпись блоков + tx)
+./client keygen --out keys/node.json
+# relay-ключ (X25519 — E2E-mailbox) создаётся нодой сам при первом старте,
+# но можно задать путь заранее через --relay-key.
+```
+
+### Шаг 2a. Первая нода (genesis)
+
+Поднимает новую сеть с одним валидатором. `--genesis=true` **только** для самой первой ноды и **только один раз** — если блок 0 уже есть в `--db`, флаг игнорируется.
+
+```bash
+./node \
+  --genesis=true \
+  --key=keys/node.json \
+  --db=./chaindata \
+  --mailbox-db=./mailboxdata \
+  --feed-db=./feeddata \
+  --listen=/ip4/0.0.0.0/tcp/4001 \
+  --announce=/ip4/<ВАШ-ПУБЛИЧНЫЙ-IP>/tcp/4001 \
+  --stats-addr=:8080 \
+  --register-relay=true \
+  --relay-fee=1000
+```
+
+`--announce` **обязателен** для любой ноды смотрящей в интернет (VPS / внешний IP / Docker с проброшенным портом). Без него libp2p пытается UPnP/NAT-PMP и чаще всего промахивается.
+
+### Шаг 2b. Вторая и последующие ноды
+
+Нужен **один** из двух способов узнать первую ноду. Второй удобнее.
+
+**Через HTTP URL живой ноды** (рекомендуется — нода сама заберёт multiaddr через `/api/network-info`, проверит genesis_hash и синхронизирует цепь):
+
+```bash
+./node \
+  --join=https://first-node.example.com \
+  --key=keys/node.json \
+  --db=./chaindata \
+  --mailbox-db=./mailboxdata \
+  --feed-db=./feeddata \
+  --listen=/ip4/0.0.0.0/tcp/4001 \
+  --announce=/ip4/<ВАШ-ПУБЛИЧНЫЙ-IP>/tcp/4001 \
+  --stats-addr=:8080 \
+  --register-relay=true \
+  --relay-fee=1000
+```
+
+**Через libp2p multiaddr** (если есть прямой мульти-адрес):
+
+```bash
+./node \
+  --peers=/ip4/1.2.3.4/tcp/4001/p2p/12D3KooW... \
+  # остальные флаги как выше
+```
+
+**Автоприсоединение к validator set** происходит не само: после того как нода синхронизируется, действующий validator должен вызвать `client add-validator --target <your-pub> --cosigs ...` (multi-sig admit). До этого новая нода живёт как **observer** — читает и гоняет tx, но не голосует. Запустить ноду **явно** как observer (никогда не проситься в validator set): `--observer=true`.

+| `--version` | — | — | Печатает версию и выходит |
+
+### Минимальные чек-листы
+
+**Первая нода (открытая):** `--genesis=true` + `--key` + `--announce` на внешний IP + `--stats-addr` + опционально `--register-relay=true --relay-fee=...` чтобы сразу монетизировать relay-трафик.
+
+**Joiner:** `--join=<url-любой-живой-ноды>` + `--key` + `--announce` + `--stats-addr`. После синка попросите действующего валидатора поднять `add-validator` (иначе остаётесь observer'ом до принятия — это нормально и безопасно).
+
+**Приватная/домашняя нода** без публичного эксплорера: добавьте `--api-token=<random>`, `--api-private=true`, `--disable-ui=true`, `--disable-swagger=true`. Clients передают `Authorization: Bearer <token>`.
+
+**Слабое железо:** `--max-cpu=2 --max-ram-mb=1024 --feed-disk-limit-mb=2048 --chain-disk-limit-mb=10240`.

+# Roadmap
+
+Living doc — «куда идём дальше». Два активных вектора: **v2.2.0 multi-device**
+и **desktop Electron client**. Всё что tentative — помечено `?`; всё что
+решено и принято к работе — без знаков.
+
+---
+
+## v2.2.0 — Multi-device (per-device X25519, on-chain device registry)
+
+### Проблема
+
+Сейчас у пользователя одна пара X25519 (хранится в `keyFile`), и relay-mailbox —
+queue с DELETE-после-чтения. При двух устройствах:
+
+- Конверт забирает то устройство, что первое дёрнуло `/relay/inbox` — второе
+  теряет сообщение навсегда.
+- История чатов per-device, не синхронизируется (`AsyncStorage` на каждом
+  устройстве свой).
+
+On-chain часть (posts, follows, tx, wallet) работает нормально — оба устройства
+читают один чейн и видят одно и то же. Чинить надо только мессенджер.
+
+### Решение — путь А (Signal-style): X25519 на устройство + device registry
+
+1. **Master identity = Ed25519** (как сейчас). Подписывает tx, владеет
+   балансом, — один на всю identity.
+2. **X25519 — per-device**. Каждое устройство при первом старте генерит
+   свою пару. Relay-mailbox остаётся queue'ом, но адресуется по
+   **устройству**, не по identity.
+3. **Device registry on-chain**: новые tx-типы `LINK_DEVICE` / `UNLINK_DEVICE`,
+   подписываются master Ed25519, публикуют/отзывают связку
+   `(master_pub → device_x25519_pub, device_name)`.
+4. **Sender-side fan-out**: при отправке — один envelope на каждое
+   активное устройство получателя. Мессадж → N конвертов.
+5. **Revoke**: master подписывает `UNLINK_DEVICE`, клиент, обнаруживший
+   свой `x25519_pub` в revoked — wipe'ит локальную БД (zeroize master
+   Ed25519 + delete chats).
+
+### План работ (PR-by-PR)
+
+#### PR #1 — Chain-side (backend) — _v2.2.0-alpha1_
+
+- [ ] `blockchain/types.go`: `EventLinkDevice`, `EventUnlinkDevice`
+  + payload structs `LinkDevicePayload`, `UnlinkDevicePayload`.
+- [ ] `blockchain/chain.go`: applyTx-ветки, state persistence:
+  - `prefixDevice + x25519_pub → DeviceRecord{owner, name, added_at, revoked_at?}`.
+  - Обратный индекс `prefixDevicesByOwner + master_pub → [x25519_pub, …]`.
+- [ ] Константа `MaxDevicesPerOwner = 10`.
+- [ ] Validation:
+  - Tx подписана master'ом; подпись matches `payload.Owner`.
+  - `x25519_pub` уникален в registry (не занят другим master'ом).
+  - `device_name` ≤ 64 символов; printable.
+  - При `UNLINK_DEVICE`: запись существует, owner совпадает с signer'ом.
+- [ ] HTTP: `GET /api/devices/{master_pub}` → `[{x25519_pub, device_name, added_at}, …]`,
+  фильтрует revoked.
+- [ ] В `/api/identity/{pub}` добавить поле `device_count`.
+- [ ] Unit-тесты:
+  - Happy path link + list.
+  - Unlink → list сократился.
+  - Лимит `MaxDevicesPerOwner`.
+  - Чужая подпись → reject.
+  - Duplicate x25519_pub → reject.
+- [ ] Swagger + `docs/api/devices.md`.
+
+Совместимость: старые клиенты, которые не обновили identity, продолжают
+работать по old-schema (envelope на published X25519 из identity). Sender
+fall-back'ит на identity.x25519, если `device_count == 0`.
+
+#### PR #2 — Client fan-out (mobile) — _v2.2.0-alpha2_
+
+- [ ] `lib/api.ts`: `fetchDevices(masterPub): Promise<DeviceRecord[]>`,
+  с кэшем в zustand store + инвалидацией по WS-ивенту `tx:LINK_DEVICE|UNLINK_DEVICE`.
+- [ ] `chats/[id].tsx` → `sendCore`: `Promise.all` по `devices[]`;
+  если `devices.length == 0` — fall-back на identity.x25519 (legacy path).
+- [ ] При первом старте (онбординг): если identity ещё не зарегистрирована —
+  `PUBLISH_KEY` tx + `LINK_DEVICE` tx (**этот** девайс как первый в списке).
+- [ ] UI: в chat-list tile бейдж `2/2` на своих сообщениях (доставлено
+  на N устройств получателя).
+- [ ] Тест: два клиента на одну identity, отправляем на contact — оба
+  получают.
+
+#### PR #3 — Devices screen + pairing flow (mobile + desktop) — _v2.2.0-alpha3_
+
+- [ ] Settings → **Devices**: список активных, unlink-кнопка у каждого
+  (кроме `this device`).
+- [ ] «Link new device» flow:
+  - Новое устройство генерит свой X25519, показывает QR

+#### PR #4 — Desktop Electron shell — _v2.2.0-rc1_
+
+См. отдельный раздел ниже.
+
+### Нерешённые вопросы
+
+- **QR-pairing UX на desktop'е**: у ноутбука камеры часто нет. Вариант:
+  master на phone шлёт invite-envelope по pre-shared secret (6-digit code,
+  вводится в обе стороны), без QR. Подумать после PR #2.
+- **History-sync backup формат**: JSON export всей ChatStorage shreds'ов?
+  Ограничение по размеру? TTL у backup-конверта? — в PR #3.
+- **Revoked-device-wipe race**: если устройство оффлайн 6 месяцев, потом
+  поднимается — первое что видит это свой revoked. Должен успеть wipe'нуться
+  **до** попытки послать tx с master-ключом. Продумать порядок bootstrap'а.
+

+
+## Desktop client (Electron)
+
+Цель: 1:1 функциональный паритет с мобильным, десктопная эргономика, keyboard-first.
+
+### Архитектура
+
+- **Electron** + **React (Vite)** + **TypeScript**.
+- 80% `lib/` переиспользуется из `client-app/lib/` (api, feed, crypto, store, types).
+- Нативные модули: `electron-store` (+ `safeStorage`) для keys, `clipboard`,
+  `Notification`, `dialog.showOpenDialog`.
+- Custom title bar (frame-less), 3-panel layout.
+
+### Экраны
+
+Full design — `docs/desktop-design.md` (TODO). Sections:
+
+- **Messages** — список чатов + conversation panel. Saved Messages pinned top.
+- **Feed** — tabs (For You / Following / Trending 24h / 7d / Hashtag) +
+  post list + thread panel.
+- **Wallet** — account overview + tx history + tx detail.
+- **Contacts** — grouped list (All / Online / Blocked / Requests) + contact profile.
+- **Settings** — grouped: Node, Identity, **Devices**, Privacy, Feed, Notifications,
+  Advanced, About.
+- **Profile** (внизу nav) — self profile; чужой — в detail pane.
+- **Auth/Onboarding** — Welcome / Create / Import / Pair-with-phone (QR/code).
+
+### Стилистика (переносим)
+
+Чёрный `#000`, карточки `#0a0a0a`, бордеры `#1f1f1f`, текст `#fff`/`#8b8b8b`.
+Синий accent `#1d9bf0`, оранж warning `#f0b35a`. Синий bookmark-avatar для Saved Messages.
+
+### Не переносим
+
+Все React-Native-анимации (Pressable-animations, `scaleY: -1`, gesture-handler
+long-press). На десктопе — правый клик, hover-states, keyboard shortcuts,
+обычный scroll вместо inverted FlatList.
+
+### Global keybinds
+
+| Key | Action |
+|---|---|
+| `Ctrl/Cmd+1..5` | Переключение секций |
+| `Ctrl/Cmd+N` | Новый пост / новый контакт (контекстно) |
+| `Ctrl/Cmd+K` | Global search |
+| `Ctrl/Cmd+F` | Search в текущей list pane |
+| `Ctrl/Cmd+,` | Settings |
+| `Ctrl/Cmd+Enter` | Send (chat / publish post) |
+| `Esc` | Close modal / cancel selection |

+
+### План работ (отдельно, после v2.2.0-alpha3)
+
+- [ ] Boilerplate: Electron + Vite + React + TS, frame-less window, 3-panel shell.
+- [ ] Сопрягание `lib/` из client-app (заменить expo-* на Electron-эквиваленты).
+- [ ] Sections по порядку: Messages → Feed → Wallet → Contacts → Settings → Profile.
+- [ ] Multi-device pairing flow (использует v2.2.0 registry).
+- [ ] Auto-update через electron-updater или через тот же `/api/update-check`.
+- [ ] Packaging: `electron-builder` → `.dmg`, `.exe`, `.AppImage`, `.deb`.
+
+### Открытые вопросы (desktop)
+
+- **Auto-update channel**: гнать через Gitea releases (как node) или отдельный S3/Gitea-attachments?
+- **Sandbox**: desktop хранит master Ed25519 — обязательно `safeStorage` (macOS Keychain, Windows DPAPI, libsecret на Linux). На Linux без libsecret — fallback на plaintext + warning.
+- **Deep-link**: `dchain://chat/<pub>` для шаринга профилей/постов из браузера.
+
+---
+
+## Меньшие хвосты (неприоритетно)
+
+- `prev_hash mismatch` при двойной gossip-доставке — понизить до Debug уровня,
+  не пугать операторов (см. history с joiner-node bring-up).
+- `/api/network-info.peers` у seed'а возвращает `[]` если
+  `DCHAIN_ANNOUNCE` не задан — добавить fallback:
+  если announce пустой, публиковать *первый listen-addr + свой peer_id*
+  (не `127.0.0.1`), чтобы joiner'ы не упирались в `peers:[]`.
+- **Groups (3+ участников)** в чатах — тип `Contact.kind == 'group'`
+  в клиенте есть, а на backend'е не реализован. После v2.2.0, потому что
+  pairwise messaging ↔ group messaging на multi-device — это другой
+  математический слой (MLS или Sender Keys).
+- Repa как weight в selection-lider PBFT — сейчас только scoring; для
+  настоящего proof-of-reputation нужно переписать leader-rotation.
