Stop server-rendered landings flashing for signed-in users (#3707)
The shell renders its anonymous markup — the marketing homepage, an
`/app/<name>` landing — off the session cookie alone, and that cookie is
set with no maxAge, so a browser drops it on quit while the GUI's
localStorage token lives on. A returning user is served the anonymous
page and the GUI only tears it down once `whoami` answers, a network
round-trip after first paint. That teardown is the flash.

Gate it before the paint instead. The shell now emits, as the first thing
in <head>, a rule hiding `.hide-if-logged-in` under an <html> class that
an inline script adds iff `auth_token_v2` is in localStorage. The rule is
already in the cascade when the markup is parsed, so a browser holding a
token never paints it at all.

`initgui` settles the guess the token represents: `whoami` confirming the
session removes the nodes outright (replacing the old `#appLanding`
removal), and no session — none stored, or one `whoami` rejected — drops
the class so the markup comes back. The gate carries its own 12s failsafe
so a bundle that never boots can't strand a blank page.

SEO is unaffected: the HTML is byte-identical for every client, nothing
branches on user-agent, and a crawler has no stored token so it never
adds the class. Unreadable storage fails open the same way.

Anonymous markup opts in with `class="hide-if-logged-in"`, which
`home.html` already carried.
