feat(tank): autofs SMB mount of tank at /Volumes/tank

Browse Source 
scripts/tank-automount.sh (run on the Mac, password on stdin) adds a /-
direct map and root-owned /etc/auto_smb pointing at //Administrator@
192.168.0.173/tank with soft. Mounts on first access, unmounts idle, so
the laptop can leave the LAN without hung Finder or login dialogs.

Findings baked in:
- macOS automount does not create direct-map trigger dirs -> mkdir -p
- automounted fs are always nobrowse (man auto_master): shows as a
  folder, not a Locations drive -> Finder Favorite (manual-checklist)
- no-tty sudo ticket is per parent pid: sudo inside $(...) fails, so the
  idempotency check is a pipeline (sudo cmp -s -)
- SMB over NFS: Mac seth is uid 501; SMB force user=root matches /mnt/Z

Also: checklist Gitea key -> id_ed25519_homelab; the smb://.../tank
'user seth' step was wrong (no such Samba user) and is now the automount.
Wired into run.sh. Verified: mount, root-owned write, two all-[skip] reruns.
Not yet verified across a reboot (FileVault).

- [ ] Launch **Rectangle** once -> grant Accessibility when prompted. Set your snap keys.
- [ ] Launch **kitty** once. Gatekeeper prompt -> Open. **Local Network prompt -> Allow** (or System Settings > Privacy & Security > Local Network > kitty ON). Symptom if missed: `ssh 192.168.0.x` says `No route to host` in kitty while Terminal works — macOS 15+ returns EHOSTUNREACH to LAN IPs for apps without the grant.

## Ableton
- [ ] ableton.com > account > download Live 12 (Suite/trial) -> install to /Applications -> authorize.
- [ ] Re-run `scripts/run.sh --no-tank` from steel141 so the Dock picks up Live (the script only adds it if installed).
- [ ] Live > Browser > Packs: download the Suite packs you want (they're part of the license — do not torrent them).
- [ ] Third-party packs: Finder > Go > Connect to Server > `smb://192.168.0.173/tank` (user seth, tick "Remember in Keychain") -> copy from `Downloads/Software/Milkie/` to `~/Music/Ableton/Samples/` (local disk — never run samples off SMB).
- [ ] Third-party packs: copy from `/Volumes/tank/Downloads/Software/Milkie/` (tank automounts on access — see "tank" below) to `~/Music/Ableton/Samples/` (local disk — never run samples off SMB).
- [ ] Live > Settings > Audio: once an interface is attached, pick it, 48 kHz, buffer 128 (raise if crackle). Test with the DAW Focus on and the lid open on AC for 15 min: no sleep, no notification.
## tank
- [ ] Finder > Go > Go to Folder > `/Volumes/tank` (this triggers the mount), then drag the `tank` folder from the path bar / window title into the sidebar **Favorites**. It will NOT appear under Locations as a drive: macOS marks every automounted share `nobrowse` (documented in `man auto_master`) — the Favorite is the one-click entry, and the share mounts on first click and unmounts when idle, so leaving the LAN never hangs Finder or throws login dialogs.
- [ ] After the first reboot: `mount | grep auto_smb` in kitty should show the `/Volumes/tank` trigger. If it's gone, `/Volumes` got cleaned at boot — tell Claude; the fix is a `synthetic.conf` mountpoint instead.
## Backup
- [ ] `ssh mac ~/mac/scripts/backup.sh` by hand once -> confirm `/tank/backups/mac/Ableton` appears on pve173 and `~/Library/Logs/mac-backup.log` exists.
