Alby96andClaude Opus 5 06ab816ebe Add saved places and optional device location
A saved place is a named point the user keeps: it frames the map now, and once
the worker publishes station data it is what the nearest-station readings and,
later, the rain notifications will hang off. Free points rather than stations,
because people think in terms of home and work, not in terms of which weather
station happens to represent them.

Everything stays on the device. Places live in SharedPreferences under a
versioned key, and there is no account to attach them to and no server that
would accept them. That is what keeps the Data safety declaration able to say
no location is collected, and it must survive the notification work: the device
will subscribe to the topic for the cell containing a place, so the link
between a person and a place never leaves their phone.

Location is coarse only, and that took enforcing. geolocator declares
ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION in its own manifest and the merger pulls it in, so the
system dialog offered "Precise" despite the app asking for nothing of the sort;
the manifest now removes it with tools:node="remove", and the dialog reads
"approximate location" with no choice offered. Requests also go through the
platform LocationManager rather than the Play Services fused provider, which
prompts about Location Accuracy and, when declined, returns no fix at all —
an absurd outcome for an app that only ever wanted an approximate one, and one
that also tied location to Play Services being present.

The prominent disclosure comes before the system dialog, as Play requires, and
is repeated in Settings so someone who already answered can still read what the
permission is for. Declining leaves the app fully usable.

Two more defects found by running it and by a test:

- MapLibreMap leaves cameraPosition null unless trackCameraPosition is set, so
  "save the map centre" silently saved the region default rather than what the
  user was looking at.
- Place ids came straight from the microsecond clock, so two places saved in
  the same microsecond shared an id and rename, remove and the duplicate-name
  check all acted on the wrong one. A test caught it on a fast machine.

Saving refuses points outside the region rather than accepting them: a place in
Rome would look like it worked and then show nothing forever.

Also corrects CLAUDE.md, which still said ARPA states no licence, and records
the ARPA realtime API there with the property that governs how it may be used —
it lags about 4.5 hours, so it is an observation archive and must never sit
next to 5-minute radar looking current.

Verified: analyze clean, 158 tests passing, and on the emulator the disclosure
precedes the system dialog, the dialog asks only for approximate location, a
place survives restart and reinstall, and tapping one moves the map onto it.

Alby96andClaude Opus 5 85b2c99949 Scaffold the Flutter app with Italian l10n and region configuration
Creates the app skeleton and the seam everything else in the project hangs
off: region-specific data lives in an asset file, not in code, so adding a
region later is a new JSON file rather than a refactor.

Notable choices:

- applicationId and namespace are it.nuvolari.app rather than the doubled
  it.nuvolari.nuvolari that `flutter create` produces, with the Kotlin package
  and the iOS bundle identifiers moved to match.
- SDK levels are pinned instead of inherited from `flutter.*`. Google Play
  requires API 36, and that is a release blocker rather than something to let a
  Flutter upgrade change silently. minSdk 24 is the highest floor the planned
  dependencies impose.
- Riverpod and Dio-free for now, no code generation: see docs/stack-decisions.md.
- Italian is the l10n source language, so app_it.arb is the template rather
  than a translation of an English original.

The region parser rejects rather than repairs. An inverted bounding box, a map
centre outside its own bounds, an unknown adapter name, a duplicate zone code
or an empty attribution list all throw with the offending field named. Each of
those would otherwise fail silently and visibly wrong: a swapped latitude and
longitude renders the radar in the wrong place, an unknown adapter falling back
to mock would show demo frames where live data was expected, and a missing
attribution is a licence violation rather than a cosmetic gap.

Tests run against the asset that actually ships and against a captured copy of
the live ARPA CAP feed, so the eleven zone codes in the config are checked
against the eleven the feed really emits rather than against a list retyped
from documentation.

Verified: dart format clean, flutter analyze 0 issues, 50 tests passing,
flutter build appbundle --debug produces an AAB with applicationId
it.nuvolari.app, minSdk 24, targetSdk 36.
