chore(fbs): pin flatc toolchain to 25.9.23 and guard codegen drift
The committed FlatBuffers bindings were generated by flatc 25.x (the TS
runtime is flatbuffers@25.9.23), but nothing pinned the compiler, so a
regen on a box with an older flatc (Debian apt ships 23.5.26) silently
churns output and flips nullable-scalar builder defaults. PR #82 hit this
and shipped 5 report files from the wrong compiler.

Unify the whole toolchain on 25.9.23 (the only version available as an
npm package, a prebuilt flatc binary, and a Go tag) and make the bindings
reproducible:

- Downgrade the flatbuffers Go module 25.12.19 -> 25.9.23 (schema,
  transcoder, gateway, integration) so compiler and both runtimes match.
- Regenerate every schema with flatc 25.9.23. The only resulting change
  is order/command-item.ts: the lone straggler still on the old
  optional-scalar builder default (cmd_applied/cmd_error_code: 0 -> null).
  Inert in practice — the TS side never builds those response-only fields
  (the engine sets them in Go); the reader is unchanged.
- Pin the version in tooling: a flatc-check guard in ui/Makefile (fbs-ts)
  and a new pkg/schema/fbs/Makefile (fbs-go); both refuse a mismatched
  flatc and point at the release binary. Fix the stale apt install hint.
- Add a path-filtered CI guard (.gitea/workflows/fbs-codegen.yaml) that
  regenerates with the pinned flatc and fails on any diff.
- Document the pinned version and the regen commands in the schema README.

No wire-format change: Go build/vet, transcoder roundtrip + engine tests,
pnpm check and the full vitest suite (888) stay green.

# Flatbuffers schemas
## Pinned flatc version
The committed bindings — Go under `<schema>/` and TS under
`ui/frontend/src/proto/galaxy/fbs/` — and the flatbuffers runtimes
(`github.com/google/flatbuffers` in the Go modules, `flatbuffers` in
`ui/frontend/package.json`) are all on **flatc 25.9.23**. Regenerate
only with that exact version: a different flatc silently churns output
and can flip nullable-scalar wire defaults (`= null` builder slots
switch between the presence-preserving `null` form and the value-omitting
`0` form). The `fbs-go` / `fbs-ts` targets refuse to run on a mismatch,
and the `fbs-codegen` CI workflow fails if the committed bindings differ
from a pinned-flatc regeneration.
Distro packages are too old (e.g. Debian trixie ships `flatbuffers-compiler`
23.5.26). Install the pinned binary from the release page:
<https://github.com/google/flatbuffers/releases/tag/v25.9.23>.
## Generating sources
Regenerate both sides with the pinned `flatc` on `PATH`:
```shell
make -C pkg/schema/fbs fbs-go # Go bindings into pkg/schema/fbs/<schema>/
make -C ui fbs-ts # TS bindings into ui/frontend/src/proto/galaxy/fbs/
```
`fbs-go` runs, for every schema in this directory:
```shell
flatc --go --go-module-name galaxy/schema/fbs {file}.fbs
```
The `--go-module-name` flag rewrites cross-namespace imports to the
fully-qualified module path (e.g. `common "galaxy/schema/fbs/common"`)
so the generated code links inside this Go module without local
replace directives. Omitting the flag yields imports such as
`common "common"` which fail to resolve.
