feat: core schema redesign — dishes, structured recipes, cuisines, tags (iteration 7)

Replaces the flat JSONB-based recipe schema with a normalized relational model: Schema (migrations consolidated to 001_initial_schema + 002_seed_data): - New: dishes, dish_translations, dish_tags — canonical dish catalog - New: cuisines, tags, dish_categories with _translations tables + full seed data - New: recipe_ingredients, recipe_steps with _translations (replaces JSONB blobs) - New: user_saved_recipes thin bookmark (drops saved_recipes + saved_recipe_translations) - New: product_ingredients M2M table - recipes: now a cooking variant of a dish (dish_id FK, no title/JSONB columns) - recipe_translations: repurposed to per-language notes only - products: mapping_id → primary_ingredient_id - menu_items: recipe_id FK → recipes; adds dish_id - meal_diary: adds dish_id, recipe_id → recipes, portion_g Backend (Go): - New packages: internal/cuisine, internal/tag, internal/dish (registry + handler + repo) - New GET /cuisines, GET /tags (public), GET /dishes, GET /dishes/{id}, GET /recipes/{id} - recipe, savedrecipe, menu, diary, product, ingredient packages updated for new schema Flutter: - New models: Cuisine, Tag; new providers: cuisineNamesProvider, tagNamesProvider - recipe.dart: RecipeIngredient gains unit_code + effectiveUnit getter - saved_recipe.dart: thin model, manual fromJson, computed nutrition getter - diary_entry.dart: adds dishId, recipeId, portionG - recipe_detail_screen.dart: localized cuisine/tag names via providers Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
