//! Host-side persistence for per-project notes.
//!
//! One JSON file per project under `<data_dir>/triple-c/notes/`, on the same
//! free-function shape as `migration_store` — no struct, nothing in
//! `AppState`, no in-memory copy. `ProjectsStore` holds a `Mutex` because it
//! caches the project list; a store that reads and writes the file per call
//! has nothing to cache and nothing to guard.
//!
//! Deliberately *not* a field on `Project`. `projects.json` is rewritten on
//! every blur by the debounced-nothing save path in `useSaveState`, so notes
//! there would mean the whole project list is rewritten per edit, and a note
//! save racing a Config save would silently drop one of them.
