docs: two-voice (civic staff + IT) overhaul with architecture diagrams - #11

…th architecture diagrams
All audience-facing docs now have a clearly separated civic-staff (plain English)
section and an IT/technical section with architecture drawings:
- USER-MANUAL.md: Part 1 (civic staff) + Part 2 (IT) with 3 Mermaid diagrams
(deployment, trust-flow sequence, data-model ER), full API table, security, ops.
- docs/index.html: civic panels + a "For IT & technical staff" section with an
inline SVG deployment diagram and an at-a-glance table.
- README.md / README.txt: two-voice split; README.txt carries an ASCII architecture
sketch. USER-MANUAL.txt mirrors the two-part structure in plain text.
- docs/github-discussions-seed.md: civic-staff posts + technical posts (with a
Mermaid diagram and a v0.4.0 change summary).
Also corrects stale facts the old docs carried (SQLite-as-default, missing /analyze,
the write token, and audit events) to match the shipped v0.4.0 behavior.
Adversarial 3-lens doc review (accuracy-vs-code, consistency/honesty, clerk
readability) run before commit; all findings fixed: added the missing `disclaimer`
column to the data-model diagram; removed "token"/raw-URL-path jargon from the
clerk sections (now "staff password" + named surfaces); fixed a landing-page
overclaim ("every check" -> "every review you save"); quoted Mermaid edge labels.
