Complete onboarding

On first launch, a short setup wizard walks you through:
  1. Welcome: a quick intro to Termique.
  2. Master password: enter a strong master password. This password encrypts your Data Encryption Key (DEK), which in turn encrypts every credential. There is no password recovery. If you lose it, your credentials cannot be decrypted. Store it in a password manager.
  3. Theme: pick Light, Dark, or System. You can change this later in Settings.
  4. Plans: compare Free and Pro. Everyone starts on Free; upgrade now or later from Settings.
