feat(sites): one install, many networks (v0.24.0-beta)

Closes #130. Multi-site, not multi-tenancy: a site is a named collection of
devices whose clients, events, topology and dashboards are viewed separately.
Sites separate what you see, not who you are — the admin/manage/read-only
roles are unchanged and every user sees every site. Per-site permissions
would have multiplied the work for a need nobody stated.

Two measurements decided the design.

Every device-derived table hangs off devices(id) — 25 of 50 tables, 35
foreign keys — so a single site_id column on devices scopes clients, events,
topology, backups and the rest transitively. No other table needed one.

The frontend has 162 useQuery call sites across 57 files. Threading a site
through each would be a large change that leaves a permanent trap: every
future query another chance to forget. The site is injected in the existing
axios interceptor instead, beside the auth token, so a new query is scoped by
default. Only 23 collection routes needed filtering; the 131 per-device
routes are already scoped by their device.

Existing installs are untouched. Migration creates one "Default Site", adopts
every device into it, and a single-site install never meets the concept. An
absent X-Site-Id header means unscoped, so existing API tokens and scripts
behave exactly as before.

Polling stays fleet-wide. Sites are a view over data already gathered, not a
change to how it is gathered — a device does not stop being monitored because
you are looking elsewhere. Rogue-AP detection scopes the scans but keeps the
"these are ours" BSSID set fleet-wide, or your own AP in another site reads
as an evil twin. Bulk actions do obey the selector: an operation that
silently spanned two customers is the blast radius the wave guards exist to
contain.

Four rounds of defects came out of testing the UI rather than the API, and
the first is the one worth recording. Switching sites called
queryClient.clear(), which empties the cache and reviews as correct. It
isn't: clear() destroys each query but a *mounted* observer keeps its own
reference and last result, so every rendered page went on showing the
previous site's data. The QueryClient is now keyed on the site, which
remounts the tree against an empty cache. Three tests pin the old behaviour
down so the shortcut cannot return.

The others: an unscoped fallback path behind the Connected Clients chart;
Config Health, TX retries and the activity feed reading fleet-wide; and
site_id added to the device list query but none of the other four that build
a device payload, so the Site field could not read its own value and appeared
to reject every change while the writes were landing. That last one is now
structural — DEVICE_BASE_COLUMNS is shared by all five, with a test that
fails when a device payload is hand-rolled, and which found two further
instances while being written.

Frontend tests were never run by CI despite vitest being configured and six
suites existing; they now run in both the workflow and ci-preflight.

Verified against a live four-device fleet: the migration left every figure
identical, an empty site returns zero from every read endpoint, moving a
device carries its history with it, and deleting a site with devices is
refused.

Minor bump rather than patch: sites change the shape of the product rather
than adding to it.

### Scoping a request to one site
Collection endpoints accept an `X-Site-Id` header (or `?site_id=`) that limits the
response to devices in that site:
```bash
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" -H "X-Site-Id: 2" \
https://mtm.example.com/api/devices
```
**Omitting it means unscoped**, returning the whole fleet exactly as before sites
existed — existing scripts and tokens need no change. Per-device endpoints
(`/api/devices/:id/...`) are already scoped by the device itself and ignore the header.
One thing to know if you create devices via the API: a device joins the site the
request was scoped to, falling back to the default site. A device belonging to no site
is invisible whenever a site is selected, so this is set rather than left null.
`preflight` is the useful one for automation: it returns the same verdict the UI shows,
so a pipeline can refuse its own change before touching the device. See
