The "top vs bottom" client label setting was cluttering the UI and
codebase with toggles that added little value. This consolidates client
label handling into one option, removes unused CLI/settings knobs, and
makes NoteView’s API consistent and fluent. Result: fewer knobs, less
branching, and a clearer, more predictable UI.
Now client labels are only shown in one place: selected notes.
- Drop `--show-client` arg in notedeck and `--show-note-client=top|bottom`
args in notedeck_columns
- Remove `NotedeckOptions::ShowClient` and related CLI parsing
- Delete `ShowSourceClientOption` enum, settings UI, and
`SettingsAction::SetShowSourceClient`
- Collapse `NoteOptions::{ClientNameTop, ClientNameBottom}` into a single
`NoteOptions::ClientName`
- Add `NoteOptions::{Framed, UnreadIndicator}`
- Move “framed” and unread indicator into flags (no more ad‑hoc bools)
- Add new NoteView builder methods: `.client_name()`, `.frame()`,
`.unread_indicator()`, and `.selected_style()`
- CLI flags for showing client labels have been removed
- `ClientNameTop`/`ClientNameBottom` replaced with `ClientName`
- API using `framed` or `show_unread_indicator` booleans must now use
the new flag setters

- Introduced a new "no_media" boolean in ColumnsArgs to capture the
--no-media flag.
- Updated NoteOptions to include a setting for hiding media, configured
from parsed arguments.
- Refactored Damus to consolidate note options (textmode, scramble, and
no-media) into a single NoteOptions field.
- Modified navigation UI rendering to pass the unified note_options.
This change allows users to disable media display via the --no-media flag.

This commit introduces a new scramble option to help reduce distractions
during development by scrambling text using rot13. When enabled via the
new `--scramble` flag, text displayed in various views is transformed,
making it easier to focus on layout and behavior without reading the
actual content.
App & Args Updates
- Added a `scramble: bool` field to the main application state (in `app.rs`).
- Extended argument parsing (in `args.rs`) to recognize the `--scramble` flag.
NoteOptions Enhancement
- Introduced a new bit flag `scramble_text` in `NoteOptions` with
corresponding setter/getter methods.
UI Adjustments
- Propagated the scramble flag through note rendering functions across
navigation, timeline, and note view modules.
- Updated several UI components (e.g., in `nav.rs`, `route.rs`, and
`contents.rs`) to accept and apply the new note options.
Rot13 Implementation
- Implemented a helper function (`rot13`) to scramble text
conditionally when the scramble option is enabled.
This feature is intended for development builds only, offering a way to
obscure text content during UI tweaks and testing.

This is a fairly large rewrite which unifies our threads, timelines and
profiles. Now all timelines have a MultiSubscriber, and can be added
and removed to columns just like Threads and Profiles.

This reduces the number of choices the user needs to make. Some of these
filters were redundant anyways. This also saves memory.

Changelog-Changed: Simplified tab selections on some columns
Fixes: https://github.com/damus-io/notedeck/issues/517
This splits notedeck into:
- notedeck
- notedeck_chrome
- notedeck_columns
The `notedeck` crate is the library that `notedeck_chrome` and
`notedeck_columns`, use. It contains common functionality related to
notedeck apps such as the NoteCache, ImageCache, etc.
The `notedeck_chrome` crate is the binary and ui chrome. It is
responsible for managing themes, user accounts, signing, data paths,
nostrdb, image caches etc. It will eventually have its own ui which has
yet to be determined. For now it just manages the browser data, which
is passed to apps via a new struct called `AppContext`.
`notedeck_columns` is our columns app, with less responsibility now that
more things are handled by `notedeck_chrome`
There is still much work left to do before this is a proper browser:
- process isolation
- sandboxing
- etc
This is the beginning of a new era! We're just getting started.

This splits notedeck into crates, separating the browser chrome and
individual apps:
* notedeck: binary file, browser chrome
* notedeck_columns: our columns app
* enostr: same as before
We still need to do more work to cleanly separate the chrome apis
from the app apis. Soon I will create notedeck-notebook to see what
makes sense to be shared between the apps.
Some obvious ones that come to mind:
1. ImageCache
We will likely want to move this to the notedeck crate, as most apps
will want some kind of image cache. In web browsers, web pages do not
need to worry about this, so we will likely have to do something similar
2. Ndb
Since NdbRef is threadsafe and Ndb is an Arc<NdbRef>, it can be safely
copied to each app. This will simplify things. In the future we might
want to create an abstraction over this? Maybe each app shouldn't have
access to the same database... we assume the data in DBs are all public
anyways, but if we have unwrapped giftwraps that could be a problem.
3. RelayPool / Subscription Manager
The browser should probably maintain these. Then apps can use ken's
high level subscription manager api and not have to worry about
connection pool details
4. Accounts
Accounts and key management should be handled by the chrome. Apps should
only have a simple signer interface.
That's all for now, just something to think about!
