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.

# Job Tracking Overview
## Purpose
Job tracking is the primary purpose of Jobjakt.
The application exists first to help users manage their job search.
Career features, CV generation, AI assistance, and job discovery support this workflow.
They do not replace it.

# Core Product Statement
Jobjakt helps users:

# Core Objects
The main entities are:
## Job

A job can exist without an application.
Example:

Later they apply.
---
## Company

# Product Principles
## Reduce manual work
Import information where possible.
---
## Keep users organised
The user should always know:

- What stage applications are at.
- What action is next.
---
## Avoid unnecessary complexity
Do not require users to complete every field.
Smart defaults are preferred.
