Subject: [PATCH] feat: Google Gemini image generation for project covers

Schema:
- SystemSettings: geminiApiKey, geminiModel, imageProvider fields
- imageProvider: "dalle" (default) or "gemini"

Gemini Client (packages/api/src/gemini-client.ts):
- Direct HTTP call to Gemini REST API with responseModalities: [TEXT, IMAGE]
- Returns base64 data URL
- Error parsing with user-friendly messages

Router (project.ts):
- generateCover: routes to DALL-E or Gemini based on imageProvider setting
- New isImageGenConfigured query returning { configured, provider }

Admin UI (SystemSettingsClient.tsx):
- "Image Generation" section with provider radio buttons (DALL-E / Gemini)
- Conditional fields: DALL-E config or Gemini API key + model
- Separate save button for image settings

Security:
- geminiApiKey sanitized in audit logs (SENSITIVE_FIELDS)
- API key stored server-side only, never sent to client
