feat(17-01): repeater field type and the dependent dropdown save recheck

- cabana: type repeater with nested form.fields (text, textarea, number,
  checkbox, switch, dropdown, richeditor), prompt, minItems, maxItems,
  titleFrom; groups, style, nested repeaters and other types fail boot
- rows decoded before projection: only nested keys, coerced scalars,
  per-row required (field.index.nested), row bounds; ProjectWritableFields
  exempts repeater lists only, nestedValue unchanged
- nested richeditor values sanitized with notices under the row path
- dependent dropdowns rechecked on save, top level and per row; null when
  the sibling takes no choice, 422 form.dependent_invalid otherwise
- dependent-options accepts repeater.field; schema carries RepeaterForm
- backend lang repeater.max_items, repeater.min_items,
  form.dependent_invalid; TestCompanionsRepeaterSmoke; docs

@@ -24,7 +24,7 @@ Use cases:
- Boot-time schema compilation: `cabana.CompileList` and `cabana.CompileForm` read a controller's YAML from the plugin's embedded tree, check that `modelClass` matches the controller's model name, and cache a locale-neutral schema. Each request gets a translated copy (`cabana.ListSchema.Localize`, `cabana.FormSchema.Localize`, `cabana.RelationSchema.Localize`) through [phrasebook](../phrasebook/README.md), with CLDR plural forms for the SPA's messages.
- Generic CRUD with `cabana.CRUDService`: list, show, create, update, delete and bulk delete. Writes run in transactions, and reads and writes are scoped by the controller's `pact.ListExtendQuery` and `pact.FormExtendQuery` hooks. `cabana.ExecuteList` applies search, sort, filters and pagination only on columns declared in the schema, so request parameters never reach SQL directly.
- Mass-assignment protection: writable form fields are bound to model columns at activation (`cabana.BindWritableFields`), and `cabana.ProjectWritableFields` drops unknown keys, case variants, nested objects and protected columns from request bodies. Declared `mltext`, `mltextarea` and `mlmarkdown` locale maps are lifted before that drop: the default locale becomes the host scalar and the other locales are written through a published `cabana.TranslationWriter` inside the same permissioned save transaction. Values are filled and validated through [lagoon](../lagoon/README.md); a value that does not fit its column (a `lagoon.FillTypeError`, such as a fraction for an integer field) is a 422 `validation_failed` on that field, and the form lifecycle hooks declared in `pact` (before and after create, update and delete) run around each write.
- Mass-assignment protection: writable form fields are bound to model columns at activation (`cabana.BindWritableFields`), and `cabana.ProjectWritableFields` drops unknown keys, case variants, nested objects and protected columns from request bodies; only a `type: repeater` field's list of rows is exempt from the nested-value drop. Declared `mltext`, `mltextarea` and `mlmarkdown` locale maps are lifted before that drop: the default locale becomes the host scalar and the other locales are written through a published `cabana.TranslationWriter` inside the same permissioned save transaction. Values are filled and validated through [lagoon](../lagoon/README.md); a value that does not fit its column (a `lagoon.FillTypeError`, such as a fraction for an integer field) is a 422 `validation_failed` on that field, and the form lifecycle hooks declared in `pact` (before and after create, update and delete) run around each write.
- Relations: `type: relation` form fields for belongsTo and belongsToMany (`cabana.FieldRelationProvider`, `cabana.FieldRelationContract`) with a paginated options endpoint and display labels in every record response; relation managers (`cabana.AdminRelationContractProvider`, `cabana.RelationContract`) served by `cabana.RelationService` for listing linked records and candidates, linking and unlinking, and creating related records. A contract is a belongsToMany (`cabana.RelationBelongsToMany`, the kind of a contract that leaves `Kind` empty) with a pivot model, or a hasMany (`cabana.RelationHasMany`) whose `ForeignKey` column on the related model points at the parent. A relation's child form comes from `manage.form` in `config_relation.yaml` (or a top-level `form`, WinterCMS's fallback), its read-only preview from `view.form` (same fallback), and a belongsToMany's pivot columns are edited through `pivot.form` (WinterCMS `pivot[x]` field names compile to `x`; pivot keys, timestamps and hook columns are refused); WinterCMS `$/<vendor>/<plugin>/...` paths resolve inside the same plugin only. A relation form accepts the scalar field types plus `datepicker` and `fileupload`; `relation`, `relation-manager`, `widget` and `partial` fail boot. The view panel's `toolbarButtons` (`create`, `update`, `delete`, `link`, `unlink`) are the capability of their routes. A relation's `messages` block takes the link keys (`link`, `linkHint`, `candidateSearch`, `linked`, `unlinkSelected`, `unlinkConfirm`, `unlinked`, `empty`) and the child and pivot modal keys (`create`, `createTitle`, `updateTitle`, `previewTitle`, `created`, `updated`, `deleteSelected`, `deleteConfirm`, `deleteOneConfirm`, `deleted`, `pivotTitle`, `pivotSaved`, `editPivot`, `createSubmit`, `updateSubmit`, `pivotSubmit`, `linkSubmit`), each defaulting to `backend::lang.messages.relation.*`. Framework code never guesses table, pivot or foreign-key names: the controller supplies them. A belongsTo field over a protected foreign key is read-only unless its contract sets `WritableForeignKey`; the protected key list itself does not change, and the submitted id is still rechecked through the scoped options query. A controller implementing `cabana.RelationLockProvider` returns a `cabana.RelationLock` per field and request: options and labels carry `locked: true` for those ids, and a create or update that adds or removes a locked id is answered 403 `forbidden` before any row is written.
- Form widgets and controller actions: a `type: widget` field in `fields.yaml` names a plugin custom element (`widget:`, which must start with the owning plugin's `{vendor}-{plugin}-` prefix), the controller action it runs (`action:`, registered through `pact.HasAdminActions`) and the writable scalar fields of the same form the action may write back (`fill:`). The admin SPA posts the action to a cabana-owned route, so the CSRF check, permissions (the controller's plus the action's own) and record scoping (`pact.FormExtendQuery`) never depend on plugin code; the response carries only the declared fill keys whose values encode as JSON scalars (a value whose `MarshalJSON` writes an array or object, NaN or an infinity is dropped). Like the list schema's `toolbarActions`, the form schema carries a widget field only when the requesting administrator may run its action. The field's `context` applies to the action route as it does on save: a request without `record_id` is the create form's and one with it the update form's, and a widget its context hides on that form answers 404. Besides `record_id` and `values`, the request may carry `payload`, the widget's own JSON value (at most 64 KiB, a 422 above that; refused on toolbar and record routes), which reaches the action unfiltered as the `Payload` field of `pact.AdminActionInput`; the action may answer with `Data` on `pact.AdminActionResult`, written to the response as `data` exactly as it encodes (any JSON up to 256 KiB encoded, a 500 above that or when it cannot be encoded), not subject to the fill allowlist and omitted when nil. The element asks for its action with a `summer-action` event whose optional `detail.payload` becomes the request `payload`, and receives the answer as a `data` attribute plus a `summer-result` event with `{data, fill, message}`. Unknown keys, a foreign or invalid tag, an unregistered action or a fill key that is not a writable scalar field fail boot.
- Controller assets: a controller implementing `pact.AdminClientAssets` names JS (`.js`, `.mjs`) and CSS files under its plugin's `assets/` directory, Winter's `addJs`/`addCss`. They are read from the plugin's embedded tree at boot (a missing file fails boot; there is no disk override) and listed in the list and form schemas under `assets` as same-origin URLs with a `?v=` content hash. A form with a widget needs at least one JS file.
@@ -39,7 +39,8 @@ Use cases:
- Permission editor: a `type: permissioneditor` field with `mode: radio` (allow `1`, inherit, deny `-1`) or `mode: checkbox` (allow `1`) edits a record's permission set as a JSON object of code to integer. The controller implements `cabana.PermissionEditorProvider`: it returns the offered `cabana.PermissionOption` list per request (served on the field as `permissionOptions`, with `locked` for permissions the administrator may not change) and reads and stores the record's values, so the storage shape is the plugin's. A save answers 422 on the field for a value that is not an object of integers, a code that is not offered or a value outside the mode's set, and 403 `forbidden` when a locked code's value changes; stored codes that are not offered are kept. The widget fill contract is unchanged: a widget still writes scalar fields only.
- Markdown and multilingual fields: `type: markdown` edits source on a host text column; `cabana.RenderMarkdown` turns that source into HTML with the pinned goldmark engine and no unsafe HTML, and leftover script or iframe tags, event handlers, or javascript, vbscript or data URLs are rejected; the admin form preview renders through it via POST `/markdown/preview`. `type: mltext`, `type: mltextarea` and `type: mlmarkdown` take a JSON object of locale code to string; `mltextarea` is the multi-line variant and takes `size` like `textarea`. The form schema's `cabana.FormMeta.EnabledLocales` lists every enabled code when a `cabana.TranslationWriter` is published, default locale first and then the other enabled codes in the writer's order, so every ML control opens on the locale stored in the host columns; create seeds an empty string per code, and Show/save replace the host scalar with that map via `hydrateMLRecord` and `TranslationWriter.TranslatedExact` (missing non-default codes stay empty; D-11 fallback is not applied). A GET host string is merged onto the seed so sibling locales are not dropped. The default locale fills the host column; other locales reach a plugin-published `cabana.TranslationWriter` after the host row has a primary key, still inside the controller's permissioned save transaction. Relation-child create, update and show on `cabana.RelationService` use the same lift, apply and `hydrateMLRecord` path as controller save, still with no standalone translate-write route. An unknown field type, including an unknown `ml*` type, fails boot.
- Rich text: `type: richeditor` edits HTML in a host text column (the admin SPA shows a WYSIWYG editor). It takes the common field keys plus `size`; any other key fails boot, and settings and relation forms refuse the type (supported in controller forms only). On create and update a submitted value must be a string or null (anything else is a 422 on the field) and is sanitized through [seaglass](../seaglass/README.md) before it is filled: HTML the policy keeps whole is stored byte for byte, otherwise the clean HTML is stored and what was removed is reported in `meta.notices` under the field (`backend::lang.richeditor.removed_elements`, `removed_attributes`, `removed_comments` with the count and names, or `markup_changed`).
- Dependent dropdowns: `dependsOn: <field>` on a `type: dropdown` field names a sibling with a scalar value (the same form, or the same repeater row); the dropdown takes no `options` and its controller implements `pact.DependentOptionsProvider`, else boot fails. GET `.../fields/{field}/dependent-options?values[<sibling>]=<value>` answers `cabana.AdminDependentOptionsResult` (`applies` and the localized `options` with their `depth`); the form schema carries `dependsOn`. A menu or sitemap controller returns `signpost.ReferenceOptions` here, the one admin binding of the [signpost](../signpost/README.md) menu item type registry. Settings and relation forms refuse `dependsOn` (supported in controller forms only).
- Repeater: `type: repeater` edits a JSON list in one column (`lagoon.Jsonable`) with a nested `form.fields` of `text`, `textarea`, `number`, `checkbox`, `switch`, `dropdown` (static, method or `dependsOn` a field of the same row) and `richeditor` fields, plus `prompt`, `minItems`, `maxItems` and `titleFrom` (`cabana.RepeaterForm` in the schema; the span is always full). Other nested types, a nested repeater, nested `tab`, `context` or `preset`, and WinterCMS's `groups` and `style` fail boot; settings and relation forms refuse the type. A save decodes the rows before the projection: null is an empty list, anything but a list of objects is a 422 on the field, each row keeps only the nested names with scalars coerced per type, a required nested value missing in a row is a 422 under `field.index.nested`, the row bounds are 422s on the field (`repeater.max_items`, `repeater.min_items`), nested richeditor values are sanitized with notices under the row path, and nested dependent dropdowns are rechecked. Record responses carry the list of rows.
- Dependent dropdowns: `dependsOn: <field>` on a `type: dropdown` field names a sibling with a scalar value (the same form, or the same repeater row); the dropdown takes no `options` and its controller implements `pact.DependentOptionsProvider`, else boot fails. GET `.../fields/{field}/dependent-options?values[<sibling>]=<value>` answers `cabana.AdminDependentOptionsResult` (`applies` and the localized `options` with their `depth`); `{field}` is `repeater.field` for a dropdown in a repeater row; the form schema carries `dependsOn`. Every save rechecks the value with the submitted sibling value (per row in a repeater): a value that does not apply is stored null, one outside the options is a 422 `form.dependent_invalid` on the field. A menu or sitemap controller returns `signpost.ReferenceOptions` here, the one admin binding of the [signpost](../signpost/README.md) menu item type registry. Settings and relation forms refuse `dependsOn` (supported in controller forms only).
- Preset fields: `preset` on a `type: text` or `type: mltext` field (a source field name, or a mapping with `field` and `type`, `slug` or `exact`) makes the field follow another text or mltext field of the same form on the create screen until the administrator edits it, per locale for an mltext pair. The schema reports it as `preset` (`cabana.FieldPreset`); the server does not fill the field.
- Server-rendered partials: `headerPartial: <name>` in `config_list.yaml` (a strip above the list) and `type: partial` with `path: <name>` in `fields.yaml` render the template `{ConfigDir}/_<name>.htm` with `html/template` against a view model from the controller's `pact.AdminPartialData`. The result reaches the SPA as an allowlisted node tree, never as an HTML string. A missing or unparsable template, a free-form path or a controller without `pact.AdminPartialData` fails boot.
- Date pickers: a `type: datepicker` field in `fields.yaml` edits a date (`mode: date`, a `lagoon.Date` column), a date and time (`mode: datetime`, the default, a `time.Time` column stored in UTC) or a time of day (`mode: time`, a `lagoon.TimeOfDay` column); pointers to the three types make the value optional. It accepts WinterCMS's `mode`, `format` (a PHP `date()` format, served also as `displayFormat` in the SPA's tokens), `minDate`, `maxDate`, `yearRange`, `firstDay`, `twelveHour` and `ignoreTimezone`; any other key, a format letter with no equivalent, bounds on `mode: time`, `ignoreTimezone` outside `mode: datetime` or a column whose Go type does not match the mode fails boot. The save rechecks `minDate` and `maxDate` on the calendar date and answers 422 on the field. List columns take `type: date` and `type: time` for these columns; when `type` is omitted, a `time.Time` column is compiled as `datetime`, a `lagoon.Date` column as `date` and a `lagoon.TimeOfDay` column as `time`. A struct column that implements `sql.Scanner` or `driver.Valuer` is never taken for a relation.
