Let outside services and computers' browser notifications give bots work

A bot hook (bot_hooks) is a secret URL, POST /api/hooks/<token>, whose
calls queue the hook's brief plus the raw body as a task, per user and
bot like a routine. Only the token's hash is kept (shown once, rotatable);
an optional HMAC-SHA256 signing secret is stored encrypted. Calls are
rate limited per address and per hook, recorded in bot_hook_events
(pruned daily), deduplicated by delivery id, and a call while the last
run still waits joins its brief instead of queueing another. The payload
is fenced data and HookRunNote tells the bot never to take instructions
from it; failed runs retry like routines.

A hook can instead watch a computer's browser notifications: the app
installs a small watcher that owns org.freedesktop.Notifications on the
sandbox's session bus, so Chrome hands it every notification (it only
looks for that service at start-up, so Chrome is restarted once, never
mid-task), and it posts each one to its hooks, optionally filtered.
Computers reach the app at COMPUTER_APP_URL or the app container's name.

Users make hooks in the conversation's Hooks modal and manage them all
on /admin/routines; bots never create or change hooks.
