Claude 2ddd496c78 feat(automation): ask a recipe for its parameters instead of its whole form
A recipe knows almost everything about the automation it makes. What it cannot
know is where your gear is: which machine runs QLab, which Companion button,
how long the aux timer should run. Handing the user the full automation form
to supply three of those made them read a form of twenty fields to change one.

A recipe now declares its parameters, and picking one asks for those and
nothing else. Create makes the automation and its trigger through the same
endpoints the form uses, so what lands in the list is an ordinary automation
with nothing special about it.

Each recipe carries a `build` function rather than a literal, which is what
lets the answers reach the outputs — a Companion address and a page, row and
column become one URL. That also absorbs the two things a user does without
thinking: an address pasted with a trailing slash, and a webhook URL that
already carries a query string. Every default still points at loopback.

For the list to hold many recipes it has to be searchable and grouped, so it
is both. Search matches the title, the description, the category and a
keywords list, so the Companion recipe answers to "stream deck" and "elgato"
and QLab answers to "osc" and "audio". Enter takes the top result. Escape
clears the search rather than closing the dialog, which is the behaviour the
settings search already has.

The picker and the parameter step are two views of one dialog rather than two
stacked modals, so Back means back rather than dismissing everything. Rows
carry only the lifecycle tag: with many recipes, the description and one tag
is what stays readable.
