Alternate names (maiden/married), self-person link, deletion integrity

Names (the genealogy standard: maiden name primary, married/alias as typed
alternates):
- Name model already supported multiple typed names; expose full CRUD —
  NameCreate/Read/Update schemas, name_service (one-primary invariant,
  promote-on-delete), nested /persons/{id}/names routes.
- Person page gains a Names card: add/edit/delete + "make primary", with a
  curated name_type dropdown (birth/maiden, married, alias, nickname, …).

Self-person ("who am I"):
- users.self_person_id FK (use_alter for the users<->persons<->trees cycle)
  + migration; PATCH /users/me/self-person; "This is me" / "This is you"
  on the person page. Soft-deleting the linked person clears it.

Deletion integrity (fixes the broken tree view):
- delete_person now soft-deletes the relationships touching the person, so no
  dangling edges remain; family-chart also filters links to missing people.
- Optional cascade=true recursively deletes descendants (GEDCOM cleanup);
  the person page asks "only this person" vs "with all descendants".
- DELETE returns {deleted: n}.

Family view surfaces "Not connected to anyone" so dangling people aren't lost.
