* Add a community_details feature for the community name and links
The community name, Discord, website, status, GitHub, and Patreon links
lived in exp_legacy/config/server_detail.lua, so changing them meant
editing the scenario. They are now the community_details feature and can
be edited from the Scenario Features page.
Chat auto reply, help bubbles, and the readme read the live config
instead of copying the values when the file loads, so an edit shows up
without a restart. Help bubbles store the location name in their task
and build the messages each cycle; the readme tab tooltip can be a
function which is called when the readme opens.
Every feature gets an enabled switch from the framework. There is no
sensible meaning for a disabled community name, so the values are
always used and the feature description says the switch does nothing.

* Move greetings to exp_scenario and drop preset colours
The greeting reads the community name and Discord link from the new
community_details feature, which exp_legacy can not depend on, so it moves
to exp_scenario/control/greetings.lua along with its commands and
locale. The custom message still lives in PlayerData for now.
The hardcoded per-player join messages in config/join_messages.lua are
removed with their fallback, as are the preset player colours. Player
sync already restores the colour of returning players, so new players
keep the colour Factorio gives them.

The toolbar order, favourites, and open panels were saved into
exp_legacy's PlayerData, which was never synced, and the file doing so
was no longer loaded. When a player leaves, the lua side now sends
Gui.toolbar.get_state as json compressed with helpers.encode_string,
and the controller stores the string on the player record.
When the player joins again the instance plugin sends the stored string
over rcon to exp_scenario.player_settings.receive_toolbar, which
decodes it and calls Gui.toolbar.set_state. exp_gui builds the toolbar
in on_player_joined_game, so it exists by the time the rcon arrives.
A string which does not decode, or a state naming buttons which no
longer exist, is logged and ignored rather than raising in the game.

exp_legacy recorded each player's locale in PlayerData statistics
which nothing read. The lua side now sends one ipc event with the
player's locale when they join and when they change language, the
instance forwards it, and the controller stores it on the player
record.
The Scenario section of the user page shows the language by name with
a flag made from regional indicator symbols. Locales with a region use
it directly, the rest map to a country through a small table covering
Factorio's locale list. Arabic, Catalan, Basque, and Esperanto have no
single country and get no flag.

Join messages were stored in exp_legacy's PlayerData, which nothing
ever synced. The controller now keeps a players.json datastore of
per-player settings keyed by player name, starting with the join
message, and saves it on the save and shutdown hooks. Records with
nothing set are removed.
When a player joins, the instance plugin fetches their record and
prints the message to everyone over rcon in the player's colour, so no
lua is needed to show it. The in-game /set-join-message and
/remove-join-message commands send ipc which the instance forwards to
the controller; /set-join-message without a message asks the instance,
which prints the stored message back to the player.
Greetings is now a feature. Disabling it stops the greeting, the
commands, and the printed join messages. The private greeting with the
community name and Discord link is shown to every joining player, even
those with a join message, since one is a welcome for the player and
the other an announcement to everyone else.
Two controller permissions cover the web interface:
exp_scenario.join_message.set for your own message and .set_other for
anyone's, checked against the requesting user the same way
exp_discord_auth checks unlinking. The seed grants them to Supporter
and Moderator alongside the in-game commands. The user page gets a
Scenario section showing the message with an edit button for users who
may change it.
