Subject: [PATCH] Handle deleted/moved workspace folders (missing state)

Detect when the current workspace folder cannot be opened and show a
dedicated "missing" screen that explains the workspace was not found.
Catch failures from get_lists during loadConfig, set a missingWorkspace
state and switch to the missing screen, and provide
forgetMissingWorkspace() to remove the missing workspace from the config
and either switch to the next available workspace or fall back to the
setup screen. Add UI in App.svelte to present the workspace name,
explanation, and a Continue button that invokes forgetting the missing
workspace.
