cedricandClaude Opus 5.5 dcb09e619e Log files: one file per entry, format detection
- a path is one file (wildcards refused for now); the name defaults to
  the file name
- format "auto" (the default): detected from the last 50 lines of the
  file, the structured format followed by at least 80 % of them (Traefik
  access JSON, JSON lines, CLF, logfmt), else plain text; done again when
  the format changes, shown in the status ("Format detected: …"); any
  other format forces it
- POST /api/files/detect {path}: found / permission / empty, detected
  format and last line, shown under the row as soon as the path is typed
  (POST so that read-only accounts cannot read files through it)
- README (EN/FR) updated
