* Centralize filesystem paths in a single module
Add paths.py, which resolves the repo root once and derives the cache,
accounts DB, logs, templates, frontend and bundled-city-data locations
from it. Replace the 13 per-module `dirname(__file__)/..` anchors with
references to it, so a module's location no longer determines where the
app reads its data. Env overrides (accounts DB, VAPID, IndexNow) are
unchanged; every resolved path is byte-identical to before.
Groundwork for moving modules into packages without re-pointing paths.

* Split the backend into domain packages
Group the flat backend modules into packages that mirror their concerns:
data/ climate, grading, scoring, grid, places, cities,
city_events, store
web/ app, views, homepage, content, schemas
notifications/ notify, digest, push, mailer, discord,
discord_interactions, discord_link
accounts/ models, users, api_accounts, db
core/ metrics, singleton, audit
Intra-project imports are rewritten to the package-qualified form. The
entry scripts (indexnow, warm_cities, migrate, gen_cities, gen_flavor)
and paths.py stay at the backend/ root, and backend/app.py becomes a
shim re-exporting web.app:app so the launch target stays `app:app` —
run.sh, the systemd units, and CI need no change.
Verified: full suite (318) passes, `uvicorn app:app` boots and serves
the home/SEO/static/API surfaces, and every root script imports clean.

A failed web push (e.g. VAPID key mismatch -> 401/403) was swallowed: /push/test still
returned 202 and the UI showed 'Sent', while the only trace was a journald WARNING.
Now: push.send logs failures to the errors JSONL (phase=push) so they show up like other
errors; /push/test returns a 'failed' count; and the 'Send test' button reports 'No
device' / 'Sent' / 'Failed' from the real result. Document the VAPID env vars (missing
from thermograph.env.example) and how to pin/diagnose them.
Make the app installable and deliver existing alert notifications as OS
push, alongside the in-app bell.
Backend:
- PushSubscription model (per-device endpoint + keys, owned by a user) and
register/unregister/test endpoints under /api/v2/push, cookie-auth scoped
to the user like the subscription routes.
- push.py: VAPID key management (env -> data/vapid.json -> generated) and a
pywebpush send helper that reports gone endpoints for pruning. No DB coupling.
- notify.py: after creating an in-app Notification, dispatch Web Push to the
user's devices (guarded — a push failure never affects the in-app write;
endpoints reported gone are pruned).
- Serve the .webmanifest with the correct media type.
Frontend:
- manifest.webmanifest + 192/maskable icons; <link rel="manifest"> on all pages.
- sw.js: push + notificationclick handlers (push-only; no fetch caching, so it
doesn't fight the existing IndexedDB cache). Registered globally in nav.js in
secure contexts.
- push-client.js + a "Notifications on this device" toggle and test-send on the
/alerts page, subscribing through the existing cookie-aware apiFetch.
Push and service workers require a secure context, so this is active over HTTPS
(or http://localhost) and cleanly no-ops on a plain-HTTP LAN origin.
