Logging out ends every login session (closes #256)
check / check (push) Canceled after 0s

A login session was a cookie with nothing kept on the server, so
logging out removed it from one browser and a copy kept working for 30
days. The session manager now keeps a random value in the database,
made when it has none and replaced by each logout; a session carries
the value current at its login and is refused once it has changed. The
logout check compares no time, so the host's clock cannot block a
login, and losing the state directory ends every login session.
Logging out is now a POST with the CSRF token, sent by a form on the
generator page.

# Completed Steps
- 2026-10-15 logging out ends every login session (closes #256): a login session
was a cookie with nothing kept on the server, so `/logout` removed it from one
browser and a copy of it kept working for its 30 days. Every login is made
with the one signing key, so logging out now ends them all: the session
manager keeps a random value, made with `crypto/rand` when the new `logout`
table has none and replaced by each logout, saves it there so that it outlasts
a restart, puts the value at login in each session, and refuses a session
carrying another value. The check for a logout compares no time, so a login
after a logout works whatever the host's clock does; a session's 30 days are
still checked against the clock. Losing the state directory ends every login
session, and no logout can make an ended one work again. Logging out is now
`POST /logout` from a form on the generator page, behind the CSRF check the
other forms have, so a link or image elsewhere on the same site cannot end the
sessions. A logout without a valid login session ends none and only removes
the cookie, as anyone can take a CSRF token from the login page. A logout that
cannot be saved answers 500. `session.NewManager`, which the tests use, keeps
the value in memory only; pixad uses `session.NewManagerWithDatabase`.
