§22 S5: in-app create-project + global-directory empty states (@S5 C3.1–C3.2)

Adds the global-Owner create-project action and the role-aware deployment
directory, completing slice S5 of the three-tier refactor (release v0.44.0,
minor/non-breaking — no migration). Per
docs/design/2026-06-05-three-tier-projects-collections.md Part E (S5),
Part C.3 (C3.1–C3.2).

Backend:
- auth.can_create_project — global-Owner gate (deployment owner/admin or an
  explicit scope_type='global' Owner grant).
- bot.create_project — provision the Gitea content repo (seed README so main
  exists), read+append+commit projects.yaml in the registry repo, audit-log
  (create_project). The bot stays the only git writer (§1).
- POST /api/projects (api_deployment) — global-Owner gated; validates the id
  (slug, not 'default'), name, type, visibility, content_repo; commits via the
  bot, then re-mirrors the registry so projects + default collection rows flow
  from git (§22.2). GET /api/deployment gains viewer.can_create_project and
  default_project_readable. make_router now takes gitea + bot.

Frontend:
- api.createProject; DeploymentProvider surfaces viewer + defaultProjectReadable
  + refresh; DeploymentLanding redirects into the default only when readable
  (gated/absent default falls through to the directory, no 404 bounce).
- Directory.jsx role-aware empty states (C3.1 "Create your first project" CTA;
  C3.2 "Nothing has been shared with you yet") + Owner-only "New project"
  control + CreateProjectModal.

Tests: backend test_create_project_vertical.py (vertical + gates + the
deployment empty-state signals); frontend Directory.test.jsx empty-state cases.

Also: ignore the session-local .superpowers/ tooling dir.

+        a bot write at two git sources:
+
+          1. **provision the content repo** — create `org/content_repo` if it
+             doesn't exist, then seed a `README.md` on `main` so the branch
+             exists (the contents API initialises the repo with that commit; the
+             corpus mirror and the propose path both need a `main` to write to).
+          2. **register the project** — commit the caller-composed
+             `projects.yaml` (the existing doc with the new project appended) to
+             the registry repo's `main`.
+
+        Like `create_collection`, this is a structural admin action committed
+        straight to main (no PR), like the registry config it feeds; the caller
+        then re-runs the registry mirror so the new `projects` + default
+        `collections` rows flow from the registry (§22.2 keeps the registry the
+        source of truth). Logs a `create_project` audit row for the §6.5 trail.
+        Returns the registry update_file result (carries the new commit sha)."""
