Lay the notes screen out like a notes app

The list of notes and the note being written are one screen now, two
panes: the notes on the left, the open one on the right, side by side
where there is room and one at a time on a phone, where the back button
returns to the list.

The search box moved into the top of that list, and its results *are*
the list — searching is a way of finding a note, not a separate place to
be, and a tab for it was a tab too many. Emptying the box brings the
whole list back. Opening a hit opens that day at the lesson that
matched, rather than at the top of a day with six of them.

A row has to say what the note holds, so the listing carries it: the
subjects a day covers, how many lessons, and the first line actually
written in it. One request for the whole list rather than one per note.

`plainText` is now one rule in one place for wherever a note is shown
rather than edited — the search snippet and the list row both went
through their own half-copy of it, and the row's copy rendered a table
as `| | |` and left `_Fazit_` wearing its markers. It strips one leading
marker, not each in turn, because `## 1. Deutsch` keeps its lesson
number and the list rule was eating it.

Driven in Firefox at both widths: the list, the search, opening a hit,
the jump to the lesson, and the phone's list-then-note. 390 unit tests,
116/117 smoke.
