wtclaude 252733644b docs(website): theming & nav phases 0-2 as built
Matches RunicGateway/website's phases 0-2 of THEMING_AND_NAV.md.

BACKEND_DESIGN.md:
- The new /settings router group and its one route, plus why it is a fifth
  group rather than a route on an existing one.
- DELETE /admin/settings/:key in the admin route table, with the allowlist and
  why reset deletes instead of writing.
- The five unseeded theming/nav keys under the settings schema: absence of the
  row is the "use the default" state, values are TEXT so consumers parse, and
  malformed reads as absent.
- Route count 215 -> 225.

THEMING_AND_NAV.md:
- Phases 0-2 marked landed, with an "as landed" section recording the three
  things the design left open: where /settings/nav lives, where
  parseJsonSetting lives, and the exact 23-declaration radius promotion.
- The nav merge util's ordering rules, settled by the implementation: an
  untouched item keeps its index as its sort key, an explicit order wins a tie
  against a coincidental index, equal explicit orders keep code order, and
  `group` is honored only when it names an existing section.
- All four PR pairs target `edge`; the feature reaches `main` as one merge.

api-route-inventory.json: resynced from server/routes.manifest.json. Picks up
the two new routes plus eight that were already missing from the mirror since
the Protocol 3.0 cutover (shard clilocs, market, points).

Runic Gateway — Documentation

Central documentation for the Runic Gateway platform. The docs here were extracted from the two code repositories (with full commit history preserved) so they live in one place, independent of either codebase.

Layout

website/    docs from the shard website (Node/Express + MariaDB + React/Vite)
link/       docs from the ServUO bridge (C# plugin + Rust sidecar + Node WS)
android/    docs from the native Android client (Kotlin + Jetpack Compose)
installer/  docs for the installer that deploys a shard's bridge components
ci/         cross-cutting CI/quality notes

Setting up a shard? installer/INSTALL.md is the operator guide, and the installer is the supported path: one binary deploys the plugin overlay, installs the uo-link sidecar as a service, and hands you the values the website needs.

WIKI_UPGRADE.md Wiki subsystem upgrade notes
SHARD_VISIBILITY.md Who sees which shard data — the admin-configurable audience framework
SPAWN_ATLAS.md The bestiary / spawn atlas: what the shard contains, parsed from its own ServUO tree
CLILOCS.md UO's id → name table: converting one from your client so items have names
UOFIDDLER.md Operator runbook — step-by-step extraction from your own UO client (cliloc table, creature art)
