Marc-André Bombeck d773f460e5 Tell the four document-summary outcomes apart ...

Opening a document said "the summary is being prepared" and kept saying it.
The view had one fallback for a null summary column and used it for every
outcome: a document nobody ever enqueued, a missing vision provider, a spent
budget, a withdrawn consent, an unreadable file, a provider error, and a
summary the outbound screen withheld all rendered as work in progress.

The common case is not the screen. The background job is enqueued at exactly
one place — a fresh upload with the auto-read opt-in already on — and no
backfill reaches anything else. Every document uploaded before the toggle went
on has a null column no job will ever fill, and the view promised all of them a
summary that was never coming.

Record the outcome as `summary_state` (migration 0254, additive, defaults to
NONE which is truthful for every existing row) and branch on it. Only PENDING,
set when a job genuinely exists, may claim generation is running. NONE,
WITHHELD and UNAVAILABLE each say what happened and offer to generate one.

The withhold keeps its rule and loses its dead end. Blocked prose is still
never shown and never stored — only the fact of the refusal is kept, and it is
no longer terminal, so asking again re-runs the gauntlet. That was the original
intent; leaving the column null defeated it, because null read as "generating"
and the guard meant nothing would ever overwrite it.

The on-demand summary now persists what it produces. It is the only repair path
for the documents the job never ran for, and re-deriving the same paragraph on
every open costs a provider call for nothing. Generation is still only ever a
click — nothing runs because a view rendered. Transcription stays session-only.

Also drop the "read by AI" line from the detail footer.
