Boden 57d472f8e8 fix(scrape): auth discovery, skip forbidden channels, mount host script

Discover Discord tokens from env, token files, GUI Settings.dat, and desktop
leveldb; bind-mount the host scrape script so container preflight uses
partition/--after cursors; skip inaccessible channels without aborting targets;
fix set -e and busybox mktemp for incremental exports under ~/Documents.

fix: Bootstrap Discord auth from DCE GUI Settings.dat

Summary

Append-safe Documents scraping is implemented and archives verify cleanly. Live runs now authenticate via discover-discord-token.sh (Discord desktop leveldb, optional GUI Settings.dat decrypt), mount the host scrape script in compose (so preflight uses --partition 1 + --after instead of stale --before 1970-01-01), and skip forbidden/inaccessible channels without aborting the whole target.

Additional requirements (landed with compose mount + resilience)

ID	Requirement	Files
G5	Mount host `run-discord-scrape.sh` into container	`docker-compose.yml`, `scripts/tests/container-smoke.sh`
G6	Preflight uses partition + optional `--after` cursor (no epoch `--before`)	`scripts/run-discord-scrape.sh`
G7	Skip forbidden/not-found channels; continue scrape	`scripts/run-discord-scrape.sh`, smoke test

Problem Frame

In scope: Discover Settings.dat, decrypt LastToken with the same PBKDF2/AES-GCM scheme as SettingsService.TokenEncryptionConverter, integrate into host runner token discovery, document path env vars, smoke test decrypt (without printing token), run one live incremental scrape + grow-only proof on a seeded target.
Out of scope: Committing tokens, browser-based reauth flows, changing merge/append logic (already landed in 006–008).

Requirements

ID	Requirement	Files
G1	`read-dce-gui-token` decrypts `LastToken` from Settings.dat (enc + plain)	`scripts/tools/ReadDceGuiToken/*`, `scripts/read-dce-gui-token.sh`
G2	Host runner discovers Settings.dat and loads token when no explicit env/file	`scripts/run-discord-scrape-host.sh`, smoke test
G3	Docs mention `DISCORDCHATEXPORTER_SETTINGS_PATH` and sibling `linux-x64/Settings.dat`	`.docs/Recurring-Scrape-Setup.md`, `scrape.env.example`
G4	Live proof: preflight + scrape + grow-only harness on one enabled target	operator run (not committed)

Decisions

Use a tiny dotnet console tool (BCL only) instead of Python cryptography to avoid venv/PEP 668 friction on Fedora.
Machine ID resolution mirrors GUI: /etc/machine-id, /var/lib/dbus/machine-id, then Environment.MachineName.
Token never logged; decrypt writes only to stdout for shell capture or mode-600 temp file inside host runner.

Test Scenarios

Scenario	Expected
Settings.dat with `enc:` token on same machine	decrypt exits 0, non-empty stdout
Missing Settings.dat	discover skips, existing error message unchanged
`--dry-run`	still passes without decrypt
Live scrape on seeded target	same JSON paths, message count ≥ before

Implementation Units

ReadDceGuiToken tool — scripts/tools/ReadDceGuiToken/Program.cs, .csproj, shell wrapper
Host discovery integration — extend discover_token_file / ensure_token_present
Docs + smoke — update setup doc, add host smoke case with fixture Settings.dat (plain token for test)
