James Wampler f124b9b4bb Add character aliases/identity links, move-beats, keyboard help overlay
- Characters can carry aliases and be linked as the same underlying
  person (canonical SameCharacterAsId, optional reveal chapter/note),
  surfaced through the API, MCP tools, agent toolset, and web UI.
- Characters page redesigned as a filterable/sortable table (name+
  aliases, role, importance, occupation, tags) instead of a sidebar
  list, to stay usable as the cast grows.
- Beats can be moved between chapters (BeatService.MoveAsync + MCP/
  agent tool + endpoint).
- Add a keyboard-shortcuts help overlay (HelpButton/HelpOverlayContext)
  wired into the project layout.
- CLAUDE.md: require every frontend component to carry a unique id
  attribute; apply it to CharacterMultiSelect and MarkdownEditor.
