ci: build & publish app + bot images to Gitea registry on merge

Add a Gitea Actions workflow (.gitea/workflows/build-images.yml) that fires on
push to main (and workflow_dispatch). On the always-on ubuntu-latest runner it:

  - verifies the host Docker daemon is reachable (socket must be mounted)
  - logs into gitea.whitlocktech.com with a PAT (REGISTRY_USER / REGISTRY_TOKEN)
  - builds & pushes both images from the existing Dockerfiles, each tagged
    :latest and :sha-<7>:
      gitea.whitlocktech.com/<owner>/website-app  (./Dockerfile — server+client)
      gitea.whitlocktech.com/<owner>/website-bot   (./bot/Dockerfile)

Raw docker CLI (no marketplace actions) for portability on self-hosted Gitea;
the shared host daemon gives free layer caching between runs. Registry owner is
lowercased for Docker refs. Deploy (compose image: + pull) is a follow-up.

+## Shard integration (uo-link)
+
+The site is wired to the live in-game world through **uo-link**, a standalone sidecar service that
+runs next to the ServUO shard. Its source lives in a separate repo:
+**[UOM/link](https://gitea.whitlocktech.com/UOM/link)**. uo-link speaks the shard's internals and
+exposes a small, authenticated HTTP + WebSocket API; this website is a *client* of it. The shard
+itself is never exposed to the internet — only the sidecar is, and only the website's backend talks
+to it.
+
+### How it works
+
+```
+ServUO shard  ──▶  uo-link sidecar (UOM/link)  ──▶  website backend  ──▶  browser
+                   REST + WebSocket, bearer-auth      ingest + REST         same-origin JSON/SSE
+```
+
+- **Connection is admin-managed, not env.** The sidecar's base URL, WebSocket URL, shared-secret
+  token, and protocol version are stored in the database (`uoLinkConfig`), edited from the
+  **Admin → Shard** panel. The token is **encrypted at rest** (AES-256-GCM) and is **write-only** in
+  the API — it is never returned to any client and never sent to the browser. Every call the backend
+  makes carries `Authorization: Bearer <token>` and an `X-UOLink-Version` header (a protocol
+  mismatch fails fast with `409` instead of being mis-parsed).
+- **Live ingest (WebSocket).** When enabled, the backend opens an outbound WebSocket to the sidecar
+  and receives a stream of game events — `mob.login`/`logout`, `char.vitals`, `economy.supply`,
+  `vendor.sale`, `player.death`/`murdered`, `house.decay` (IDOC), staff `audit.*`/`cheat.*`,
+  `link.request`, and `server.hello`/`shutdown`. A single dispatcher (`utils/shardIngest.js`) routes
+  each event: state-changing kinds update `shard_online` / `shard_economy` / `shard_houses`; notable
+  kinds are appended to an append-only `shard_events` log; high-frequency kinds (vitals, supply
+  ticks) only update state and are not logged. A changed boot id on `server.hello` is detected as a
+  restart and stale "online" rows are cleared. On reconnect the backend backfills missed events via
+  the sidecar's `/history`.
+- **Live round-trips (REST).** For point-in-time reads the backend calls the sidecar directly —
+  `/char/serial/:serial`, `/roster/:account`, `/vendors/:account`, `/economy`, `/history` — plus
+  commands `/link/confirm` and `/towncrier`. The REST client (`utils/uoLinkClient.js`) **never
+  throws**: every call returns `{ ok, data, status }`, so a shard that is down or mid-restart
+  degrades to a `503`/retry banner instead of a 500.
+- **Fan-out to the browser.** Ingested events are pushed to browsers over **Server-Sent Events**.
+  Two channels exist: a **public** stream carrying only a safe allowlist of kinds, and an
+  **admin-only** stream that also includes sensitive kinds (staff audit, cheat detection, login
+  attempts, IPs). Sensitive kinds can never leak onto the public channel.
+
+### Account linking
+
+A player (or staff member) proves ownership of a game account without sharing any game credentials:
+
+1. In game, the player runs **`[link`** and receives a one-time code.
+2. On the website (Player portal, or Admin → Account for staff) they enter the code.
+3. The backend confirms the code with the sidecar (`POST /link/confirm`), which permanently tags the
+   game account with the website user id, and mirrors the link locally in `shard_account_links`.
+
+That mirror is the authorization basis for character reads: roster/vendor/character-sheet endpoints
+are **ownership-checked** so a user only sees accounts they linked. **Admins may view any
+character**; players and editor/moderator staff are limited to their own linked accounts.
+
+### What each audience sees
+
+| Surface | Endpoints | Who | Data |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| **Public** | `/api/v1/public/shard/*` (`status`, `feed`, `economy`, `online`, `idoc`, `stream`) | anyone | Shard up/down, gold-supply series, IDOC houses, a curated live feed, and **"Staff online"** — only players whose account is linked to a **staff** user (admin/editor/moderator), shown with name + map location. Linked *players* are never listed publicly; no vitals or account are exposed. |
+| **Player** | `/api/v1/player/shard/*` (`link`, `accounts`, `roster/:account`, `vendors/:account`, `char/:serial`, `sales`) | logged-in player | Their own linked accounts: character rosters, character sheets, player-vendor snapshots, and recent vendor sales. |
+| **Admin** | `/api/v1/admin/shard/*` (self-linking, same as player) · `/api/v1/admin/uo-link/*` (`config`, `towncrier`, `stream`) | staff / admin | Staff link their own accounts like players; **admins** additionally read *any* character's data, edit the sidecar connection config, publish/remove **town-crier** messages, and subscribe to the full event stream (incl. audit/cheat). |
+
+The sidecar URL and token are set once in **Admin → Shard**; if uo-link is not configured (or the
+shard is offline), every shard surface degrades gracefully — the public page still renders, showing
+the shard as offline.
