feat(app): add fixed Start tab with welcome page and recent documents

A pinned "Start" tab now lives at index 0. It cannot be closed, opens
on launch, and replaces the model-space viewport with a welcome page —
similar to Thunderbird's first-run screen.

- Boot opens with only the Start tab; Drawing1 is no longer auto-spawned.
- The Properties left panel becomes a Recent Documents rail on the
  Start tab. Recents persist to disk
  (%APPDATA%/H7CAD/recent.txt on Windows, $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/H7CAD/recent.txt
  on Linux, ~/Library/Application Support/H7CAD/recent.txt on macOS), up
  to 20 entries, saved on every open and rehydrated at boot.
  Each row opens or removes the file in place.
- The Support ribbon group (Donate / Report / About / Changelog) is
  retired; the same actions surface on the welcome page instead. The
  Donate button is the primary call-to-action — solid #B03020 brand
  fill with a soft brand-tinted ambient glow halo behind the action row
  (Thunderbird-style coloured glow against the neutral page).
- Drawing-only overlays (mouse-area, viewcube, navbar, dynamic input,
  selection markers) are suppressed on the Start tab so its clicks
  don't trigger CAD commands. OpenFile's "current_is_empty" check
  refuses to replace the Start tab, and TabClose ignores requests on
  it.
