✨ Add editable thoughts canvas layout#55

Code Review
This pull request introduces interactive layout editing capabilities for the thoughts canvas in development mode, allowing users to drag, rotate, and save card positions directly to a JSON file via a custom Vite dev server plugin. The feedback highlights critical issues regarding responsiveness and layout corruption, specifically noting that saving from a mobile viewport writes incorrect coordinates to the shared layout file, and that applying the same overrides to both desktop and mobile views breaks the mobile layout. Additionally, the reviewer identified erratic rotation behavior due to an incorrect transform origin (origin-top-left instead of origin-center), suggested storing a direct reference to the rotate handle in the drag state for safer cleanup, and recommended adding safeguards to prevent state updates on a destroyed controller during active save operations.

Code Review
This pull request introduces a development-only layout editor for the thoughts canvas, allowing users to drag, rotate, and save card positions directly to a local JSON file via a custom Vite plugin. The feedback identifies a layout issue where desktop-edited coordinates leak into mobile viewports, causing cards to misalign or fly off-screen, and suggests restricting these overrides to the desktop media query. Additionally, it recommends collecting stream chunks as buffers in the dev server middleware to prevent potential UTF-8 encoding corruption.

On mobile viewports (screen width < 768px), the layout is generated dynamically using mobRows and does not use the desktop overrides. However, because .thought-canvas-card uses left: var(--edit-x, var(--x-mob)) globally, any desktop-edited coordinates stored in --edit-x and --edit-y (which are set as inline styles when dragging on desktop) will override the mobile positions. This causes cards to be positioned incorrectly or fly off-screen on mobile if the user previously edited them on desktop.
To fix this, we should only apply the --edit-x and --edit-y overrides within the desktop media query (@media (min-width: 768px)), and keep the mobile layout strictly bound to --x-mob and --y-mob.
.thought-canvas-card {
left: var(--x-mob);
top: var(--y-mob);
transform: rotate(var(--rotate-deg, 0deg));

When reading from a Node.js readable stream (like req), chunks are emitted as Buffer objects by default. Concatenating them directly to a string (body += chunk) implicitly calls toString() on each chunk. If a multi-byte UTF-8 character happens to be split across a chunk boundary, this can result in encoding corruption.
It is safer to collect the buffers in an array and concatenate them using Buffer.concat() before converting to a string.
| let body = '' | |
| for await (const chunk of req) | |
| body += chunk | |
| const chunks = [] | |
| for await (const chunk of req) | |
| chunks.push(chunk) | |
| const body = Buffer.concat(chunks).toString('utf8') |
