feat: password-based key derivation + operational QUICKSTART

keyderive.py: derive Ed25519+X25519 from username+password via Argon2id.
Same credentials → same keys on any device. Encrypt/decrypt keypair
bundle (AES-256-GCM) for hub storage (web clients).
7/7 tests. Full suite: 81/81.

keyderive.js: browser counterpart using PBKDF2-SHA512 + random keypairs
encrypted for hub storage. Avoids algorithm mismatch with Python.

hub/models.py + users.py: keypair_bundle field added to User, stored on
registration, returned in login response for web client key recovery.

QUICKSTART.md: fully rewritten. 3 operational scripts in QE/demo-v1/:
  setup_demo.py  — create accounts, group, distribute GEK
  run_node.py    — start HTTP node (watches shared/ directory)
  download.py    — bob login → GEK fetch → decrypt → save
All tested locally end-to-end. No invented URLs.
