Make creating a person obvious; inline "create new" when linking relatives

- Family view gets a prominent "+ Add person" button that creates a person and
  opens their page to fill in details (previously you could only add a person
  via the empty-state form or by linking from another person).
- The person page's relationship picker (PersonCombobox) now offers
  "+ Create '<typed name>'" when the person doesn't exist yet: it creates them,
  links them in the chosen role (parent/child/partner/sibling), and jumps to
  their new page to edit — no more create-then-go-back-and-link.

Frontend only — no migration.
