feat(frontend): review-status filter, badge, and review toggles

FilterBar gains an Any/Needs review/Reviewed segment (r=1/r=0 token);
FileCard shows a "needs review" dot; FileViewer gets a header toggle that
propagates back to the grid; SelectionBar gains a bulk "Mark reviewed"
action. Adds a --color-success theme token.

+# Tanabata File Manager
+
+A multi-user, tag-based web file manager for images and video. Go + Gin backend
+(Clean Architecture, pgx, goose migrations), SvelteKit SPA frontend, PostgreSQL,
+JWT auth — shipped as a single Docker image that serves both the API and the
+built SPA on one port.
+
+## Documentation
+
+- [`openapi.yaml`](openapi.yaml) — full REST API specification
+- [`docs/DEPLOY.md`](docs/DEPLOY.md) — production deploy (Gitea Actions → host)
+- [`docs/GO_PROJECT_STRUCTURE.md`](docs/GO_PROJECT_STRUCTURE.md) — backend architecture
+- [`docs/FRONTEND_STRUCTURE.md`](docs/FRONTEND_STRUCTURE.md) — frontend architecture
+- [`.env.example`](.env.example) — every configuration variable, documented
+
+## Quick start
+
+```bash
+cp .env.example .env        # then edit the secrets (JWT_SECRET, ADMIN_PASSWORD, …)
+docker compose up -d --build
+```
+
+By default this runs the app plus a bundled PostgreSQL container
+(`COMPOSE_PROFILES=with-db`). To point at a Postgres already on the host, set
+`COMPOSE_PROFILES=` empty and aim `DATABASE_URL` at `host.docker.internal`. See
+[`.env.example`](.env.example) for the full matrix.
+
+The app is published on **127.0.0.1** only and expects a reverse proxy in front
+(see below). The default port is **42776** — the sum of the Unicode code points
+of 七夕.
+
+## Reverse proxy (nginx)
+
+The container publishes its port on loopback (`127.0.0.1:${APP_PORT}:42776` in
+[`docker-compose.yml`](docker-compose.yml)), so a reverse proxy on the host
+terminates TLS and forwards to it. Three settings matter for this app:
+
+1. **`client_max_body_size`** — uploads go up to `MAX_UPLOAD_BYTES` (500 MiB by
+   default). nginx caps request bodies at **1 MiB** out of the box, so without
+   this every large upload fails with `413`.
+2. **Forwarded headers** — the app trusts `X-Forwarded-For` only from the hops in
+   `TRUSTED_PROXIES` (default: loopback + Docker bridge ranges) and keys its
+   login/refresh rate limiter on the resulting client IP. If the proxy doesn't
+   send the header, every request looks like it comes from the proxy and shares
+   one rate-limit bucket.
+3. **Streaming for big media** — turning request/response buffering off lets
+   large uploads stream straight to the app and lets video range-seeks work
+   without nginx spooling whole files to disk first.
+
+```nginx
+server {
+    listen 443 ssl;
+    server_name tanabata.example.com;
+
+    # ssl_certificate / ssl_certificate_key ... (e.g. from certbot)
+
+    # Match MAX_UPLOAD_BYTES (500 MiB default); nginx defaults to 1m → 413.
+    client_max_body_size 512m;
+
+    location / {
+        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:42776;   # APP_PORT
+        proxy_http_version 1.1;
+
+        proxy_set_header Host              $host;
+        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP         $remote_addr;
+        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For   $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
+        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
+
+        # Stream large uploads/downloads instead of buffering to disk; keeps
+        # video range-seek responsive. Scope these to file/preview locations
+        # instead if you'd rather keep buffering for small JSON responses.
+        proxy_request_buffering off;
+        proxy_buffering         off;
+        proxy_read_timeout      300s;
+        proxy_send_timeout      300s;
+    }
+}
+```
+
+If you run the app **without** a proxy and want it reachable on the LAN, drop the
+`127.0.0.1:` prefix from the `ports` line in
+[`docker-compose.yml`](docker-compose.yml) and adjust `TRUSTED_PROXIES`
+accordingly.
