RPGs pull real RPGGeek data; off-BGG games get facts and a cover photo

Two gaps at the edges of the library, both closed.

RPGGeek items live in the same database but use their own link types —
rpgdesigner, rpgpublisher, rpggenre, rpgcategory, rpgmechanic — so a
board-game-only parser found none of them and both RPG entries showed
just a year and a description. parse_things_full now reads both
vocabularies (plus rpgproducer/rpgseries): .dungeon gains John Battle
and Project Nerves, Parsely gains Jared A. Sorensen and its genres.

An off-BGG game has no API to enrich it and no publisher art to fetch,
so its detail page now hosts the only source it will ever have: a form
for title, year, players, playing time, publishers, designers and
notes, plus a cover photo upload. Both persist in data/local_games.json
and data/local_art/ (committed, like every other curation store) and
enrich merges them over the photo reads, so a rebuild can't erase them.

- Base game vs. expansion vs. new edition is the top failure mode — bias matching toward `ambiguous` over auto-match ("Wingspan Europe" must not match base Wingspan).
- Editions/versions matter: Eric owns multiple editions of some games — each is a separate collection entry (keyed by `collid` on BGG). Never guess a version: no legible cues → `version_unknown` and a version-less collection entry.
- Normalize titles (casefold, strip punctuation/articles, special chars like é/&/:) identically on both sides of a match; dedupe across photos but keep `source_photos` provenance.
- **Human curation is durable**: `data/title_splits.json` (photo-scoped split-into-copies decisions, honored by extract's dedupe AND resolve's dedupe), `data/title_edits.json` (corrected reads/cues, applied before dedupe on every titles.json rebuild), `data/title_removals.json` (lines removed from the catalog — filtered out of every rebuild; delete the record to undo), and `data/title_additions.json` (games added without a photo — joined into every rebuild; a later photo sighting dedupe-merges with them) persist forever. Row-level decisions persist via the `dedupe_veto` column — edits never drop veto'd rows (a rename retitles them in place); removal drops them (explicitly discarding the line).
- **RPGs are local-only citizens**: when the board-game search runs dry, resolve falls back to `type=rpgitem` (same geekdo API/token). Matched rpgitems enrich into the library but diff routes them to `local_only` — they must never reach `to_add.csv`/upload (their collection lives on RPGGeek, out of scope).

- Detailed BGG API behavior (202 queueing, collection-endpoint quirks, endpoints): use the `bgg-api` skill. **If the spec's BGG behavior changes, update the `bgg-api` skill to match** — they must not drift.
