Adds per-certificate notes, resolving #41. No API or configuration changes are required to upgrade.

Added

  • Certificate notes. Every certificate card — generated, uploaded, archived, interface-SSL, and the Root CA — can hold one free-text note (up to 2,000 characters, plain text, line breaks preserved) to document what the certificate is for. Notes are edited inline on the card and are independent of the certificate files: they survive archive/restore, server restarts, and container recreates, and are removed when the certificate is permanently deleted.
  • New endpoint PUT /api/certificates/:folder/:certname/notes (auth + CSRF protected, rate limited); GET /api/certificates now includes a note field on annotated certificates.
  • Notes persist in data/certificate-notes.json (atomic writes; a malformed file is treated as empty rather than breaking certificate listing). Docker deployments already mount data/ via the mkcert_data volume, so no compose changes are needed.
