Fix sidecar pipe crash on state changes and show logged-in state in settings

The state callback in main_headless.py wrote events to stdout
synchronously, so an EINVAL on the Tauri sidecar pipe (Windows) bubbled
up through _set_state and tore down engine init and reload_engine. That
turned PUT /api/config into a "Failed to fetch" for the user. The print
is now pipe-safe and api_server isolates the chained callback so a
future misbehaving listener cannot break the engine state machine.

Settings also now persists remote.email on login and shows a "Logged in
as <email>" indicator with a Log out button when an auth_token is
present, instead of leaving the email/password fields blank on reload.
