refactor(profile): visual voice picker, playback toggles, danger zone

- Replace voice <select> with a two-column card grid grouped by engine
  (Kokoro GPU / Pocket TTS CPU / Cloudflare AI); each card has a per-voice
  sample play/pause button matching AudioPlayer behaviour
- Add Announce chapter and Audio mode (Stream/Generate) toggles to a
  unified Playback row in Preferences; Audio mode toggle disabled for
  CF AI voices
- Remove duplicate PUT /api/settings from the profile page; all writes
  go directly into audioStore / theme context and the layout's single
  debounced effect persists them
- Add Danger Zone section: collapsible, requires typing username to
  unlock Delete account button; calls DELETE /api/profile
- Add deleteUserAccount() to pocketbase.ts: purges user_settings,
  user_library, progress, comment_votes, book_ratings,
  user_subscriptions, notifications, user_sessions then the
  app_users record
- Add DELETE /api/profile server route (auth-guarded)
