Companion: bump the corner mascot ~12% (128→144) and make animation
resolution robust — fall back to the idle clip when a mood has no clip of
its own, and pin the always-asleep cat to one pose so its Lottie never
reloads. This stops a bare emoji from replacing the cute companion on idle.
Update notifications: serve a build id at /api/version (a hash of the
embedded dist/index.html, which changes on every frontend deploy). The
client records its load-time id, polls every 90s (and on tab focus), and
floats a Mandarin-first "new version available" banner offering a refresh
when the id changes.

- Mascot badge 64→128px (Lottie 56→112, emoji fallback 32→64); zzz glyph
scaled + repositioned to match. It read too small on screen.
- Awake companions (no sleeping clip, e.g. Happy Dog) no longer show a 😴
face or drifting "z" when the engine naps them — they hold their idle pose
via a renderMood redirect. Only the always-asleep cat (real sleep clip)
keeps the zzz, preserving that gag.

Click the mascot to open a bilingual picker and switch between the Sleepy Cat
(always asleep, still talks in her sleep) and the Happy Dog (awake/bouncy).
Choice persists in localStorage.
- companions.ts is the roster; add one by dropping a pure-vector Lottie JSON
in animations/ and appending a COMPANIONS entry.
- napping = companion.alwaysAsleep || mood === 'sleeping' drives the sway/zzz.
- Removed the old single MOOD_ANIMATIONS map (animations/index.ts).

- LottiePlayer now auto-crops each asset to its content bbox (union getBBox
across 6 frames -> square viewBox), so stock files with empty artboard
padding fill the badge instead of floating tiny in the middle.
- Wire sleeping-cat.json to every mood: she's always asleep in the corner yet
still mumbles tips and cheers through the bubble. napping hardcoded true so
she keeps the calm sway + drifting zzz even while "talking".
- happy-dog.json parked in the folder as an awake-mascot alternate.
- Enable resolveJsonModule for the JSON imports.

A cozy bottom-right mascot that reacts to the writing session: cheers on
accepted suggestions and word-count milestones, drops Mandarin-first writing
tips, suggests screen breaks after long stretches, and naps when idle.
- useCompanion: library-agnostic behavior engine (priority + cooldown paced
so it never nags); tips.ts holds all copy, bilingual zh-first.
- LottiePlayer wraps lottie-web's light build (offline, no eval/CDN) so it
bundles into the Go binary. Ships with an emoji-kitten placeholder per mood;
dropping a Lottie cat JSON into animations/index.ts is the only swap needed.
- Speech bubble uses the CJK-first font stack (spec Note #17).
