cesnimda b176a44627 docs: reorganize tree, restore architecture + research from archive, add Phase 0 reports

Active docs/ was stub scaffolding while the real docs sat in docs/_archive/.
Restore and correct them, and record the Phase 0 work.

- docs/architecture/current.md: verified system map (from archived SYSTEM_OVERVIEW,
  9 corrections against code).
- docs/research/competitors.md: sourced competitor analysis (from archived
  PRODUCT_RESEARCH, feature matrix corrected).
- docs/decisions/ADR-002-job-application-model.md: the Job/JobApplication split.
- docs/application-discovery-report.md, docs/implementation-roadmap.md,
  docs/phase-0-foundation-report.md, docs/career-workspace-branch-assessment.md.
- Remove 10 zero-byte placeholder files that advertised content that never existed.

Product Principles

Purpose

Defines the principles that guide product decisions.

Principle 1

Job Tracking Comes First

Jobjakt exists primarily to help users manage their job search.

Every major decision should support:

Finding jobs.
Applying efficiently.
Tracking progress.
Improving outcomes.

Principle 2

Career Data Is the Foundation

Users should maintain one professional identity.

The application should avoid:

Multiple disconnected profiles.
Re-entering information.
Duplicating career history.

Principle 3

AI Assists, Humans Decide

AI should:

Suggest.
Improve.
Analyse.
Accelerate.

AI should not:

Replace user judgement.
Modify facts silently.
Invent experience.

Principle 4

Simplicity Over Complexity

Powerful features should remain approachable.

Avoid:

Complex workflows.
Excessive configuration.
Feature overload.

Principle 5

Progressive Disclosure

Show users what they need when they need it.

Example:

New users:

Simple CV creation.

Advanced users:

Custom themes, AI tools, detailed controls.

Principle 6

Quality Over Quantity

A small number of excellent features is better than many unfinished features.

Principle 7

SaaS Ready, Not SaaS First

Architecture should allow future growth.

However:

Do not sacrifice user experience today for hypothetical future requirements.
