Follow-up builds (#23)

A build definition may declare afterSuccessOf, running whenever the named
build of the same branch turns green — the deployment path chosen over a
deployCommand or a separate deploy section.

- Everything repository-scoped (results, artifacts, worktrees, git and config access) goes through a `RepoContext`, never through an implicit current directory: the executor serializes per (context, branch) under one global `maxConcurrent`, the watcher polls every context in its own guard. `RepoRegistry` opens one context per entry of the instance configuration `~/.werkator.yml` (ADR 0009), or the current directory without one; the instance-level keys (`server`, `executor`, `watcher.pollInterval`) and the `defaults` block are folded into every repository's effective config by `ConfigLoader` itself, so no consumer reads the home file directly. Server routes carry the repository as `/repos/<name>/…` and `/api/repos/<name>/…`, with the unscoped form permanently meaning the served repository; the pages stay per repository and a drop-down in the page title switches between them.
- When config keys change, three places must stay in sync: the `WerkatorConfig` data classes, the `InitCommand` templates, and `docs/configuration.md`.
- Every config file may declare `werkator.version.since`/`below` (the Werkator it is written for, never a format version — no API is involved). `since` is enforced in both directions, using `ConfigVersions.FORMAT_BROKE_IN` for "file predates a breaking change"; `below` only warns. A violation aborts the start for the machine and project config, but fails only that branch's builds for a branch config.
- A branch describes its own CI: its committed `.werkator.yml` is the branch layer (`ConfigLoader.loadWithBranchLayer`, used by the watcher per origin branch and by `loadForWorktree` at build time) and takes precedence over `.git`/project — including the whole `builds` section, so a new configuration can be tried out on a branch without affecting other branches. Only the pinned set is stripped from that layer: secrets (`git`), host/repository sections (`server`, `gitea`, `executor`, `watcher`), the docker (`docker.enabled`, `docker.network`) and werkdock (`werkdock.enabled`, `werkdock.rootfs`, `werkdock.binary`) sandbox policies, and the trust gate (`requirePullRequest`). A branch must never reach credentials, disable its container or sandbox, change its network, substitute a foreign rootfs, raise global concurrency, or bypass its own pull-request gate; a branch's definitions apply to that branch alone.
- A build definition carries the complete description of its build, split in two: the `trigger` block (`onPush`, `atTimes`, `branches`, `activeWithin`) says when and for which branches it runs, everything else what it does. `builds.default` is the base every other definition inherits its settings — never its `trigger` — from. The split is structural so that a selector added to `TriggerConfig` later is non-inheritable by construction; writing a trigger key flat is refused, never ignored, because ignoring it leaves a build that silently stops running. A `!` prefix in `trigger.branches` excludes and always wins.
- The inheritance is applied after all layers are merged: that order is what makes a build a branch invents inherit the host's sandbox policy instead of the data-class default, so the pinning also holds for a build the host has never heard of. Pinned are `requirePullRequest`, `statusContext`, `docker.enabled`, `docker.network`, `werkdock.enabled`, `werkdock.rootfs`, and `werkdock.binary`. Docker and werkdock are mutually exclusive per branch — enabling both is rejected at start. The section was called `bwrap` until v1.2.0 and is still read under that name, with a warning; the hard refusal waits for the release that sets `ConfigVersions.FORMAT_BROKE_IN`.

- A build definition carries the complete description of its build, split in two: the `trigger` block (`onPush`, `atTimes`, `afterSuccessOf`, `branches`, `activeWithin`) says when and for which branches it runs, everything else what it does. `afterSuccessOf` makes a definition the follow-up of another one — a deployment is a build that follows a green build (PR#23): it runs at the predecessor's commit after every green run of it, whoever started that run, and the `FollowUpTrigger` that enqueues it is armed only by `Watcher.start()`. `builds.default` is the base every other definition inherits its settings — never its `trigger` — from. The split is structural so that a selector added to `TriggerConfig` later is non-inheritable by construction; writing a trigger key flat is refused, never ignored, because ignoring it leaves a build that silently stops running.

The section was called `bwrap` until v1.2.0 and is still read under that name, with a warning; the hard refusal waits for the release that sets `ConfigVersions.FORMAT_BROKE_IN`.
- `builds` or the legacy `branches`, never both: `branches` is read only while the merged config defines no build at all (`builds.maxConcurrent` is not one), and ignored with a warning as soon as one exists. The section is deprecated and goes away once the repositories have migrated; then `ConfigVersions.FORMAT_BROKE_IN` gets set and a leftover `branches:` key must be rejected by name — the version check alone cannot catch a file that declares no version.
- Web UI: server-rendered Thymeleaf plus one hand-written `static/werkator.js` — no SPA framework, no frontend build pipeline; every fetch has a timeout and an explicit error badge; `UiFormats` and `werkator.js` must produce identical display formats.
- Git and Docker access shells out to the CLIs (`GitCommandRunner`, `docker`) — no JGit, no Docker SDK.
