Every bot file was chunked into bot_file_chunks and embedded into
bot_file_vectors, and uploads kept their extracted text in
media.text_content, which together took most of the database. Bot
files are no longer indexed: bots find them by name or path with
list_files and read them with read_file, and search_files, ingest_file
and the files modal's re-read button are gone. Attachments keep no
text; a reply reads a document from the file. Only knowledgebase
documents keep text.
The schema drops both tables and the ingest columns. At boot,
dropStoredFileText removes what older versions stored (file jobs,
upload text) and vacuums once much of the database is free. The
media:prune-text script it replaces is removed.

`text_content` is an extracted-text cache, but nothing stopped it from
holding a dump of bytes:
- `fileToText` ended its switch with `default: return buffer.toString("utf-8")`
and defaulted a missing extension to "txt", so any binary was decoded.
- Both extraction callers gated on `media_type == "document"`, and
`attachmentFileKind` classes everything non-image/audio/video as a
document: an SVG, a zip, a spreadsheet, a .bin.
- Nothing capped the length, so a 20 MB attachment could leave 20 MB of
text in the database.
- `storeChatAttachments` copied the text onto a second `media` row, and
`SELECT m.*` pulled the column into page props and API responses.
On a real install an SVG held 6852 characters of markup and a
`.designcraft` file held 142 KB of raw bytes.
Changes:
- `file-to-text.ts` lists the text extensions explicitly and returns
undefined for anything else; no extension is no text.
- `can-extract-text.ts` is the one allowlist (reusing
`BotTextFileExtensions`), used by both upload routes and by
`uploadAndRecordMedia`; `extension-of.ts` is shared with the storage
catalog instead of duplicated.
- `BotAttachmentTextStoreMaxChars` (200k) caps the column via
`cap-text-content.ts`.
- `store-chat-attachments.ts` no longer copies the text; ingestion
re-reads the bytes once.
- `media-columns.ts` selects every media column but `text_content`, which
now has to be asked for (`grab-messages-media`'s reply path and
ingestion do); the media CRUD routes sanitize rows they write.
- `ingest-bot-file.ts` decides on size alone, since a cached slice made
an oversized file look already read.
- `bun run media:prune-text` cleans rows that were already stored
(rerunnable, with a VACUUM hint).
Verified on the dev database: both bad rows cleared (146 KB), rerun
reports nothing to do.
