John O'Keefe a431dfa10b fix(sync): websocket events are per-user — chokepoint the fan-out
Owner-flagged after the dev-docs audit: BroadcastProgressUpdate,
BroadcastAnnotationUpdate, and BroadcastConflictNotification fanned out
through the untargeted Broadcast, delivering one user's book progress,
conflict notices, and — worst — annotation payloads (which can carry
note/highlight text) to EVERY connected client on the instance. A
family-lens violation of exactly the kind the RLS move eliminated for
database reads: user B's client received events for user A's books,
including books in libraries hidden from B.

Fix is the RLS philosophy applied to the fan-out layer: enforcement at
one choke point. The untargeted Broadcast method and its channel/loop
machinery are deleted — BroadcastToUser is now the only door, and the
compiler forces every future emitter to name its audience instead of
relying on review. The three helpers take the acting user's ID; the
four sync call sites (progress.go x2, annotations.go x2) already had
the acting user in scope. Scan events were already per-triggering-
identity and collections already per-user — unchanged. Logging is
untouched: the only log line in the diff is the deleted method's own,
so docker logs remains the complete administrator audit trail.

TestBroadcastIsPerUser pins the invariant (alice's two devices receive
her three events; bob's client receives nothing — any message there is
a cross-user leak). Both websocket docs updated in the same commit:
the wire doc's fan-out section now states per-user delivery and the
chokepoint, and the gated endpoint doc's intro matches. Full make test
green.
