marcandClaude Opus 5 3acb8b66a4 Free unused attachments, and keep versions by count rather than by age
Two rules governed version retention: the newest 50 per note, and a sweep
of anything past 90 days. The second was wrong. The count already bounds
what a note can accumulate, so age only ever deleted history nothing had
replaced — and it bit hardest exactly where history is most wanted, a
note left alone for a quarter of a year losing its whole past for having
done nothing. It is off unless VERSION_RETENTION_DAYS is set.

How many versions to keep is now a notebook's own setting, falling back
to the server default when left empty. A reference notebook can keep
fifty of everything while a scratch one keeps three.

That makes freeing attachments answerable. A picture taken out of a note
cannot be deleted straight away: the versions from before still show it,
and restoring one would find a hole. It is released once no current note
and no kept version refers to it — which, with retention by count, is
when the last version holding it is pushed out.

The server cannot look for itself, bodies being encrypted, so the client
reports a note's attachments on every save as it already does for links,
and a version inherits what the note held when it was snapshotted — by
definition what that version contains.

Two things make it safe rather than merely plausible. Silence is not
"uses nothing": a note written before this existed has no rows, which
looks identical to one with no pictures, so nothing is released for a
user while any of their notes has yet to report — the prefetch that fills
the search index reports for them on its first pass. And an upload has a
row before the note using it does, so recent attachments are left alone.

POST /api/admin/housekeeping runs the sweep on demand.

Caught while testing: the same block of markup had been pasted into the
create-notebook dialog as well, where the state it referenced did not
exist — the dialog crashed on open.
