feat(apps): copy an app, a page or a registration form

[rubenvdlinde]

Change apps-copy-app-and-page (not archived: T03's Playwright copy has not run against a live stack yet). A maker can copy a whole app, one page, or one registration form, and the copy is independent of its source from the moment it exists.

What is built:

• T01, REQ-BQCP-001: lib/Service/AppTemplateCapture.php ports the de-namespace step of src/services/templateCapture.js to PHP, so a template array can be built from an app's current version on the server. Its PHPUnit cases are the ones of templateCapture.spec.js, so both sides agree.
• T02, REQ-BQCP-001/002: POST /api/applications/{slug}/copy in ApplicationsController. A signed-in administrator who owns or edits the source app; rate limited like from-template; a taken slug is the install seam's 409. It installs through installFromTemplateArray(), so the copy gets its own register, the source's schemas and its current manifest, and no records.
• T03, REQ-BQCP-001: "Copy app" in ApplicationDetailActions.vue, with a name and slug dialog in src/modals/CopyAppDialog.vue; the copy opens once it is made. Design correction: not on the app cards. A card is one link, and a button inside a link is announced wrongly by screen readers and swallows the card's click.
• T04, REQ-BQCP-003: "Copy page" on each row of the page list (src/services/pageCopy.js): a unique id and route, "Copy of" the title, inserted below the source.
• T05, REQ-BQCP-004: "Copy form" on each registration form (src/services/formCopy.js): a draft for the same type value, never the default. The body is validated against the real registrationForm schema fragment (Ajv in Vitest; Opis in the lane: valid, and a wrong-typed control invalid).
• T06: English and Dutch strings; a section "Copy instead of templating" in docs/tutorials/admin/02-template-catalogue.md.

Still open, and why the change is not archived: T03's Playwright test tests/e2e/copy-app-and-page.spec.ts (copies the seeded Hello World app at API level, then a second copy on the same slug must be refused) has not run against a live stack. The parity row app-duplicate stays building until it has; form-copy is built (its requirements are covered by Vitest and their e2e exclusions carry reasons).

Tests, each red before its code (logs kept in the lane):

• T01: AppTemplateCaptureTest (testDeNamespacesSchemasAndEveryManifestReference, testCaptureThenCloneIsACleanRename, testAnUnprefixedSchemaIsCapturedUnchanged, testACollisionNamesBothSchemas, testNoRowsAndNoMutation).
• T02: CopyApplicationTest (testAnEditorCopiesTheApp, testAViewerCannotCopyTheApp, testANonAdminOwnerIsRefused, testATakenSlugIsRefused, testCopyIsRateLimitedLikeFromTemplate).
• T03 to T05: tests/modals/CopyAppDialog.spec.js, tests/services/pageCopy.spec.js, tests/services/formCopy.spec.js.

Live check: as an admin, POST /index.php/apps/buildiq/api/applications/hello-world/copy with {"name": "Copy", "slug": "copy-1"} answers 201; GET .../applications/copy-1/manifest lists the same page ids as hello-world; the same POST again answers 409. In the UI: an app's detail page, Actions, Copy app.

Inherited, not fixed here: the vendored hydra-gates in composer check:strict fail gate-101 on the five buildiq schemas that carry reasoned no-demo skips since #853; CI's required gate run (hydra-gates@main) honours the reasons.
