feat(settings,index): per-user index sub-path, strip dead PP settings, scope duplicates

Lets a user pick a sub-folder under their library as a working index root,
stored server-side (new sidecar user_prefs table). The Library tree, reindex,
and both duplicate views (stacks + cross-folder scan) now re-root to it via a
single userLibraryBase() helper. Also fixes the cross-folder scan/archive
endpoints, which previously walked/touched the whole originals root instead
of being scoped per-user (archive now rejects out-of-scope paths, 403).

Removes PhotoPrism settings (Search/Maps/Server-UI/Features/Import) that only
steered PhotoPrism's own bundled SPA and were never read by mulimage's UI.

Also fixes the Library tree occasionally getting stuck on "Loading folders…"
by dropping gcTime:0 and gating the spinner on isLoading instead of isPending.

+	Move/copy photos into a folder under originals/ — the single dialog behind
+	every "move to folder" entry point (heap kebab, folder kebab, the grid's
+	BulkActionBar button, and the `m` shortcut). Driven by the moveDialog store
+	so the picker UI and the move/copy wiring live in exactly one place.
+
+	Three subjects:
+	  • heap   — move/copy an album's photos into a folder (optional subfolder,
+	             optional delete-heap-after). The original behaviour.
+	  • photos — move/copy a UID selection from the grid. Same options minus
+	             delete-heap.
+	  • folder — reparent a folder: move the directory (and its subfolders)
+	             under a chosen destination parent. Move-only, no subfolder; the
+	             folder keeps its own name. The picker excludes the folder
+	             itself and its descendants.
+
+	Picker reuses the readonly FolderTree; the dialog owns the selection
+	(`pickedPath`) so it never fights the global folderPath filter.
