--lan key persists across restarts; stale tabs get a readable 403

The key rotated on every server restart, stranding every phone that
held the previous cookie — during active development that guaranteed a
wall of refusals from stale polling tabs after each restart. The key
now lives in data/.lan_key (gitignored, 0600 — the Playwright-state
treatment for credential-adjacent files) and is reused across
restarts; delete the file to rotate. A keyless browser navigation now
gets a one-line HTML page saying what to do instead of raw JSON.
