Owner

Follow-up honesty fixes from the "what if the owner forgets their password?" question:

  1. Terms implied the recovery file rescues a forgotten password. It opens with the same password, so it can't. The line now states the real fallback: the heir's claim works without the owner's password, and the owner holds the heir file + code, usable once the waiting period passes.
  2. Landing FAQ gains "What if I forget my password?" ("You lose time, not money") and the lost-device answer stops telling easy-setup owners to back up a seed phrase they were never shown.

Checks: tsc clean, 58 web tests, eslint clean, vite build ok.

- Terms: the old line implied the recovery file rescues a forgotten
  password. It can't; it opens with the same password. Now states the
  real fallback: the inheritance path (heir claim, or the owner's own
  copy of the heir file after the waiting period).
- Landing FAQ: new "What if I forget my password?" answer - you lose
  time, not money - and the lost-device answer no longer tells easy
  setup owners to back up a seed phrase they were never shown.
