The avatar is now applied rather than deferred: BotFather's /setuserpic is a
conversation in which you send a photo, so the file is uploaded and sent as
a message. It is content addressed -- replacing the file is what triggers an
update, and the digest is recorded only after BotFather confirms, so a failed
upload retries rather than being remembered as done. The image is validated
before the conversation starts, because an image rejected halfway leaves the
bot registered without a picture.
Adds `provision preflight`: spec, avatar, OpenBao reachability, credentials,
session presence, salt and the resulting plan, checked in one run that writes
nothing and never contacts Telegram. Every failure it reports is one that
would otherwise surface after a phone number had been spent.
Two bugs it found immediately. The avatar path is documented as repo-relative
but resolved against the spec's own directory, so the real campaign spec
failed to find its own asset. And the OpenBao error named both variables when
only one was missing, sending the reader to check the one already set.

Completes the provisioner's write path. internal/tg drives BotFather as a
conversation rather than pretending it is an endpoint, creates channels,
claims usernames with fallbacks, and grants post_messages. internal/apply
sequences it: bot before administrator, test channel before public, and
state saved after every step that changed the world -- a channel that
exists but is unrecorded is worse than one that does not exist, because
the next run creates a second.
The operator session lives in OpenBao, not on disk. gotd's FileStorage
would leave a full-account credential in the working directory, where it
outlives the run and can be committed by accident.
The bot token goes straight from BotFather's reply to OpenBao and is
cleared from memory; if that write fails the error says how to recover by
hand and warns against re-running, since a retry creates a second bot.
Closes T05: the redaction salt is create-if-absent with no overwrite path,
and the test asserts it, because rotating it invalidates every longitudinal
comparison with no visible failure.
