/**
 * Notebooks: reading and writing page files.
 *
 * A notebook is a directory on the user's computer.  The page being written
 * is the file `Current.svg` in it, rewritten as the page changes.  A page is
 * *kept* by copying `Current.svg` to a dated file such as
 * `2026_10_02_01.svg`.  That happens when the user asks, and by itself
 * whenever `Current.svg` is about to be given over to a different page, so
 * that no page is lost by forgetting to keep it.
 *
 * The browser cannot reach those directories itself, so it asks the local
 * program (kokkoja.py), proving with a token that it is the user's own
 * browser.  When Kokkoja is opened from a web site instead, with no local
 * program, the notebooks are kept in the browser's own storage
 * (`browser_notebook.js`) under the same names and rules; the user gets
 * pages out of them as downloads.
