fix(client): degrade against a node still speaking MNP 1.0
The SPA is served by the hub, so deploying the hub puts this client in front of
every node — including the ones not updated yet. That window is the normal
state for as long as an operator takes, and for a node someone else runs it may
be indefinite. Three controls were broken across it, and the failure mode is
quiet: an unknown message type is logged by the node and never answered, so the
click produces a thirty-second wait ending in a timeout with nothing on screen
to say the node simply cannot do this.
Files' Upload button read `root.writable`, which a 1.0 node does not send — it
says `upload`, the same answer under the older name. The button disappeared on
every un-upgraded node. It reads both now, and still respects an explicit
`writable: false` rather than falling through to the legacy flag.
The per-app folder pickers spoke `app_directories`. Videos, Music and Photos
each had their own message before that and those still work, so the page
chooses by version: an operator on an older node keeps the ability they had.
`video_root` and `audio_root` hold one folder, so several are refused with a
reason rather than stored as the first and silently truncated.
Root management — writable, removable, eject, plug — has no older equivalent to
route to, so the table goes read-only with a line saying why and pointing at
the `meshbay-node root` commands. Chat's two settings are new with nothing
before them and are hidden the same way.
None of this was inferred from a payload's shape: `_checkNodeVersion` already
parsed the node's version and threw it away, and it is kept now. Coupling a
capability to whether some field happens to be present is how a flag flips
because an unrelated payload changed.
