Read the user's own lesson notes, and the class register behind them

Schulcloud says what was uploaded and WebUntis says what was scheduled.
Neither says what was *taught* — which point the teacher laboured, which
example landed, what "will definitely come up". That lives in two places
this server could not reach: the notes the user takes in the lesson, and
WebUntis' class register.

Notes are a directory of Markdown files (NOTES_DIR), not a table. They
have to be writable from a phone in a classroom, readable when Postgres
is down, and outlive this project, and files are the only shape that is
all three — so the files are the truth and the index is a view of them,
the same split as file_texts and the mirror. list_notes and get_note read
disk, so they answer before the first crawl; search, what_changed and all
three German prompts read them alongside the Schulcloud material.

add_note writes one, and is the only thing in this server that writes
anything. That is not a hole in the read-only invariant but a different
store: it is bounded to NOTES_DIR by the same safeComponent/resolveWithin
pair that stops a hostile Schulcloud filename escaping the mirror, so a
note titled ../../.ssh/authorized_keys becomes a filename. Schulcloud and
WebUntis stay GET-only and allowlisted respectively. NOTES_READONLY
refuses writes outright.

Appending targets the *lesson*, not the title: "halt das auch noch fest"
mid-lesson carries a new title, and deriving the path from it would start
a second note every time, which is the one thing append exists to prevent.

Notes.app has no export — its bodies are compressed protobuf and the
iCloud copy is encrypted — so scripting the app is not the clumsy route
to the notes but the only one. scripts/export-apple-notes.js reads them
through AppleScript into one JSON object per line, and `schulcloud note
import` converts the HTML to Markdown, takes the Notes folder as the
subject and the *creation* date as the lesson's date. Attachments cannot
come across; a note that was a photo of the board imports as a line
saying so, because importing it empty would hide the loss.

The class register needed one API property to become cheap:
getLessonTopic2017 answers per *series*, not per period, so a term is
reconstructed by asking about the latest period of each lesson series and
merging back by id — a few dozen calls for a school year rather than one
per lesson. untis_lesson_topics now takes a subject as well as a period
id, and UNTIS_HISTORY_DAYS of register goes into the index under a kind
of its own, so "what did we actually do before the test" is searchable.

Sharing the snapshot rather than duplicating it caught one thing on the
way: the search tool's live path had to learn notes too, or fresh=true
would have quietly disagreed with the index.

305 tests; 88/89 smoke against the local instance, the one failure being
the H5P service that instance does not run. The live smoke could not be
retaken: that session has lapsed and needs a fresh jwt cookie.

- **It answers per *series*, so one call covers a term.** The entries come
back with their own `periodId` and date, which is what lets a range of
lessons be reconstructed from a handful of calls rather than one per period:
take the distinct `lessonId`s in the range, ask about the **latest**
`periodId` of each, and merge the answers back onto the periods by id.
Asking about the earliest period of a series instead reaches none of its
history, because "previous" is relative to the period given.
`core/untis-history.ts` is that walk, and it is what puts the class register
into the search index.
- **The exam module is unused at this school**, so `getExams2017` is empty and
`period.exam` is null. Announced tests are typed into the period's **info
