The picker now writes a new "away" status value rather than reusing "idle". The behavioural split:

"idle" (auto) is set by the background scan when last_active_at goes stale and is cleared by the next HTTP request via touch_user_activity.
"away" (manual) is sticky: touch_user_activity skips it (its predicate is status='idle' only) and the background idle scan skips it (its predicate is status='active' only). The user must change the status themselves to leave away.

@here resolution (resolve_here_targets) now drops away users in addition to DND - manual away is the user explicitly signalling "I'm not around right now," which is stronger than transient idle.

UI changes are minimal because "idle" and "away" render identically: yellow dot, "Away" aria-label, "Away" sidebar label. The picker preselects "Online" for both active and idle so an auto-idled user opening the picker is not nudged into sticking themselves to away.

Added db_status tests covering: set_user_status accepts away, touch_user_activity leaves away alone, mark_idle_users leaves away alone.

Depends on #N (feat/presence-polish) for the renamed labels.
