Jannes Stubbemann 6059c665d5 fix(a11y): remove maximum-scale and user-scalable=no from viewport (#3726 )

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Humans watch and oversee those agents through a web UI
> - Accessibility matters for anyone who cannot read small text
comfortably — they rely on browser zoom
> - The app shell's viewport meta tag includes `maximum-scale=1.0,
user-scalable=no`
> - Those tokens disable pinch-zoom and are a WCAG 2.1 SC 1.4.4 (Resize
Text) failure
> - The original motivation — suppressing iOS Safari's auto-zoom on
focused inputs — is actually a font-size issue, not a viewport issue,
and modern Safari only auto-zooms when input font-size is below 16px
> - This pull request drops the two tokens, restoring pinch-zoom while
leaving the real fix (inputs at ≥16px) to CSS

## What Changed

- `ui/index.html` — remove `maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no` from
the viewport meta tag. Keep `width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0,
viewport-fit=cover`.

## Verification

- Manual on iOS and Chrome mobile: pinch-to-zoom now works across the
app.
- Manual on desktop: Ctrl+/- zoom already worked via
`initial-scale=1.0`; unchanged.

## Risks

Low. Users who were relying on auto-zoom-suppression for text inputs
will notice nothing (modern Safari only auto-zooms below 16px). No API
surface change.

## Model Used

Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context), extended thinking mode.
