John O'Keefe ed0ce5d077 docs(media-items): Work Order 3 batch 3a — reader-adjacent CRUD (11 endpoints)
New frontmatter'd docs with real shapes (sqlc models pinned directly):
- bookmarks: get/create/update/delete (sync-aware rows: dedup_key,
  last_modified_*, tombstones; delete is 204)
- review: upsert (empty string DELETES the review) / get (200 with
  {review:null} when absent) / delete
- get single note + highlight (full sqlc row shapes)
- annotation history: restore (POST, kind via query or body) and purge
  (DELETE, kind via required query; permanent)

Gate hardening forced by this batch:
- required-field walk now guards non-struct Request types (RawMessage pins)
- update_media_bookmark needed a full example block (no cross-reference
  shortcuts — the gate checks every doc standalone)

# Purge Deleted Annotation
**Permanent** — removes a tombstoned annotation from history entirely. Kind
comes from the required `annotation_type` query parameter
(`highlight` | `note` | `bookmark`; no body fallback on DELETE).
## Example request
```text
DELETE /api/media-items/550e8400-.../annotations/440e8400-...?annotation_type=highlight
```
## Example response
```json example-response
{
"purged": true
}
```
## Errors
| Status | Body | When |
| ------ | ---- | ---- |
| 400 | `{"error": "annotation_type must be highlight, note, or bookmark"}` | missing/invalid kind |
| 404 | `{"error": "deleted annotation not found"}` | nothing tombstoned under that id |
| 500 | `{"error": "failed to purge annotation"}` | unexpected server error |
| 503 | `{"error": "annotation service unavailable"}` | service not constructed |
