Refuse an unversioned database that already has a files table (closes #11 )

An unversioned database (user_version 0) that already contains a files table was not created by this build; it is a foreign or partially initialized file. Adopting it silently could corrupt unrelated data, so createSchema now checks for a files table first and, when one exists, returns the schema-version error telling the operator to remove the file and rescan. A genuinely empty database is still created and stamped as before. Model: opus-4-8
Remove dead files.dat references from build config (closes #22 )
