iOS only grants Web Push to a site the user has added to the Home Screen via
Safari (16.4+), and it needs the apple-mobile-web-app meta tags to launch
standalone rather than in a Safari tab. Those were absent. Adds them to both
header families — the five standalone frontend pages and base.html.j2 — alongside
the existing theme-color:
apple-mobile-web-app-capable, mobile-web-app-capable,
apple-mobile-web-app-status-bar-style, apple-mobile-web-app-title
Adds ios-install.js: a dismissible hint shown only to real iOS Safari visitors
who haven't installed yet (skips Chrome/Firefox-iOS and standalone launches),
pointing them at Share -> Add to Home Screen and noting it's how to enable alerts.
There is no beforeinstallprompt on iOS, so a pointer to the control is the only
nudge available. The dismissal persists under the thermograph: localStorage
prefix — not tg:, which cache.js sweeps on every load.
No backend change: an installed iOS home-screen app reuses the existing service
worker and VAPID web-push stack as-is.
