fix: consolidated site UX & content fixes#202

Conversation
Closes #183 The blog RSS button used a SvelteKit anchor with no reload hint. The (marketing) layout sets trailingSlash: 'always', which causes the client router to redirect /blog/rss.xml to /blog/rss.xml/ on client-side navigation. The +server.js endpoint is prerendered to a file at /blog/rss.xml, so the trailing-slash form falls through to the SPA shell (or errors), and visitors saw a 500. Adding data-sveltekit-reload makes the browser perform a full navigation, bypassing the client router so the static file is served directly. Direct URLs already worked because they are not subject to the router's trailing-slash rewrite.
The default pg-js retry policy (5 attempts, 500ms initial delay, multiplier 2) exhausts in ~7.5s of total wait time. That's shorter than a typical cryptify service restart, so users see a hard failure during what should be a recoverable outage. Bump maxAttempts to 8 and initialDelayMs to 1000ms so the retry budget covers ~90s of total wait — long enough to ride out a restart while still failing fast for genuinely down backends. Closes #181
Add a synchronous inline script in app.html that reads the user's theme preference (localStorage 'preferredtheme', falling back to prefers-color-scheme) and applies the .dark class to <html> before the browser paints. Previously the class was only set during Svelte hydration, causing a brief light-mode flash on every refresh in dark mode. Closes #180
Closes #182. The encryption/upload progress UI rendered by SendButton exposed only a spinner and progress bar; users had no in-app way to abort a long upload. Adds a Cancel button to the upload-info-box that calls AbortController.abort() on the existing encryption/upload signal, flips selfAborted so the catch path resets to FileSelection, and provisions a fresh AbortController for the next attempt.
