tasks, webui: the task field-writer table as data (#1550)

Row 61. packages/tasks/fields.json holds the slice 1 field table in two
layers (decision 113): each broker task verb's writer check, and each
field's writing verbs and Vikunja calls. packages/tasks/src/fields.mjs
checks the shape as code and loads it frozen. The tasks test reads the
writer layer from the table and authority from roles/*.json and drives
every task verb against the fake Vikunja. The Console serves the table
at GET /api/task-fields, and the task page shows a "Who may write"
section. The slice 1 doc's field table points to the file.

Darkwing's round 1, candidate manifest 33b96986, base 4f8ac1e7. Approved
by Dewey (27776) and Filbert (27785). Sage's gate green 18:57:31Z to
19:01:58Z.

`fields.json` holds the slice 1 field table as data (row 61, lead
decision 113): the writer each verb checks in step 1 or in
`task.update.assigned` (pm, the assigned role or any role), and the
fields each verb writes with their Vikunja calls. `loadFields()` checks
its shape and refuses any other. Whether a write also needs a resolved
decision isn't in it. That comes from the role's authority in
`roles/*.json`, which `authorize` reads in step 5.
`tests/fields.test.mjs` walks every verb against the fake and checks
both.
A write that answers 5xx or doesn't answer is never retried. The adapter
reads the task again. If the write took effect, it continues. If not,
or the re-read fails too, the verb refuses with `write-uncertain`. A
