terminal, chat and files are granted by default; permissions screen simplified

DEFAULTS. Every role now starts with the three confined capabilities at write, seeded in
bootstrap. These are what the platform is FOR — an account that signs in and reaches none of
them is not restricted, it is useless, and making the owner grant them by hand first is a
step with no decision in it.

Seeded as real rows rather than implied by absence, which keeps the table's one rule intact:
a missing row means no access, always, with no exception to remember. Revoking one therefore
works like revoking anything else — the row goes and nothing puts it back. Done in bootstrap
because that happens exactly once per install, so seeding can never fight a later revocation.
Non-fatal: an owner whose roles hold nothing is a one-click fix, while failing bootstrap over
it leaves a platform with no account at all.

`app` capabilities are deliberately not defaulted — they reach data the owner may not intend
to share, and each needs a sidecar before it means anything.

SCREEN. Role selection is tabs rather than a dropdown: three roles are the axis you move
along, and a select hid two of them behind a click while giving no sense of which one you are
editing. Row descriptions are gone — with three rows called Terminal, Chat and Files they
explained nothing — and the "needs a Linux account" warning went with them, since every
account now gets one at creation, so it was noise about a state that no longer occurs on its
own. `needsOsAccount` is removed from the API too, not just hidden.
