Merge pull request 'Modal Esc/overflow polish, artist-scoped post scroll, failing-sources Logs button' (#43) from dev into main

Operator-asked 2026-06-01: each row in the "X sources are failing"
rollup needs a button to surface the last run's stdout/stderr/error
without leaving the Downloads tab to find the matching event row.

Wired:
- `downloadsStore.loadLastForSource(sourceId)` two-steps via
  `GET /api/downloads?source_id=N&limit=1` (most recent event) then
  the existing `loadOne(id)` for the full detail payload. Returns
  null if no events exist (toast warns).
- `FailingSourcesCard` row: new text button `Logs` with
  `mdi-text-box-search-outline`, per-row spinner via `logLoadingIds`,
  emits `view-logs` with the source record.
- `DownloadsTab.onViewFailingLogs` is the handler — same
  `DownloadDetailModal` instance the event-row clicks use.

+"""drop artist + copyright ml thresholds; lower general default to 0.50
+
+Revision ID: 0029
+Revises: 0028
+Create Date: 2026-06-01
+
+Operator-flagged 2026-06-01: the view modal's Suggestions panel hides
+most general-category predictions because the default threshold is
+0.95. Lowering the default to 0.50 (matches character) so general
+suggestions surface more aggressively; the value remains tunable in
+Settings → ML.
+
+Same change retires two ML suggestion categories whose Tag.kind
+surfaces are unused:
+
+- `artist`: retired in FC-2d-vii-c — artist identity is acquisition-
+  derived (image_record.artist_id), never ML-inferred. The threshold
+  column was a leftover from before that retirement.
+- `copyright`: retired 2026-06-01 — the app uses `fandom` for the
+  franchise/copyright concept (per TagsView.vue's doc comment); no
+  Tag rows of kind=copyright exist, and the threshold column never
+  fed anything user-visible.
+
+Both columns are dropped from ml_settings; the existing row's
+suggestion_threshold_general value is bumped from 0.95 to 0.50 iff
+it's still at the old default, so deployed installs pick up the new
+UX without overriding any operator tuning.
