registerUser() declared `: string|true`; the bare `true` type requires
PHP 8.2, so including auth.php was a fatal error on PHP 8.0/8.1 — every
login/API call returned 500 while install.php (which doesn't include
auth.php) worked. Use string|bool instead. Also install a JSON exception
handler so future server errors surface a message to the SPA instead of
a blank 500.
install.php now takes the videos path (form field / --videos= CLI flag),
persists it into config.php, and creates the directory if missing.
config.example.php default changed from a dev path to /srv/courses.
Creates config.php from the example if missing, creates the database
(and app DB user when admin credentials are given), applies schema.sql
idempotently, optionally creates the first login account, and locks
itself with .install.lock after a successful run.
Scans nested course folders for mp4s, tracks per-user resume position
and per-folder progress. SPA frontend with hash routing over a JSON API;
range-request streaming via stream.php.
