MechaCat02 ac61aea870 Create /data/notes in the image, and write the rollout runbook ...

The Dockerfile creates /data/mirror and /data/state with the right owner,
and the comment above it says exactly why: Docker initialises a new named
volume from the image directory, so a mount point the image does not have
lands root-owned and the unprivileged user gets EACCES on every write.
/data/notes was added to docker-compose.yml without being added here, so
every save on a fresh deployment would have failed that way — verified
both directions before fixing it.

docs/DEPLOY-NOTES.md is the runbook for putting this on a server that is
already running: publish, decide where the notes live *before* anything
writes one, set WEB_PASSWORD, verify, migrate, index. Plus rollback,
which is uneventful — no migration, and the old image simply ignores the
new settings and leaves the notes volume alone.

PI.md's backup table needed the bigger change. Everything else this
server stores is a copy of something upstream and a crawl rebuilds it;
the notes are not, and nothing can. They are now the one entry in that
table marked irreplaceable, and the EACCES row says to fix the volume's
ownership rather than delete it.
