step 10: plugins system (Lua + templates) + DokuWiki as optional plugin

Plugin Manager:
- Discover plugins from .verstak/plugins/<name>/plugin.json
- Enable/disable per plugin
- Template definitions (JSON) → pre-filled node trees
- SQL migrations from plugins
- Built-in templates loaded from internal/core/plugins/builtin/templates/

Lua Runtime:
- Stub (gopher-lua placeholder) — ready for real implementation
- When dep added: hooks (on_init, on_vault_open, on_node_create),
  sandbox (no io/os.execute), Plugin API

GUI:
- Template selector in create node modal
- POST /api/nodes/from-template creates tree from template
- Built-in "Клиент" template: Overview note + Документы/Переписка/Скриншоты

CLI:
- verstak plugin list/enable/disable/templates

DokuWiki Importer:
- Moved to contrib/plugins/importer-dokuwiki/ (optional plugin)
- plugin.json + migration + README

DokuWiki removed from MVP core — now an opt-in plugin.

Acceptance: go build ./... pass, go test ./... pass (all packages).

-## ШАГ 10 — DokuWiki Importer
+## ШАГ 10 — Система плагинов (Lua + шаблоны дел)
 
-**Цель:** можно импортировать страницы DokuWiki как дерево дел.
+**Цель:** можно положить Lua-скрипт в `.verstak/plugins/` — и он работает.
+Без перекомпиляции программы.
 
 **Acceptance:**
-- namespaces → folders
+- `.verstak/plugins/<name>/plugin.json` — мета
-- pages → notes
+- `main.lua` — загрузка через gopher-lua
-- оригиналы сохранены в `.verstak/originals/dokuwiki/`
+- `on_init`, `on_vault_open`, `on_node_create` хуки
+- `verstak.node.register_type()` — новые типы дел
+- `verstak.http.route()` — API для GUI
+- шаблоны дела (JSON) → предзаполненное дерево
+- песочница: нет io/os.execute, только API
+- CLI: `verstak plugin list / install / enable`
+- DokuWiki импортер — пример плагина в `contrib/plugins/importer-dokuwiki/`
 
 **Действия:**
-- DokuWiki парсер: namespaces как nodes tree
+- `internal/core/plugins/manager.go` — сканирование, загрузка, валидация
-- страницы как note nodes с .md файлами
+- Lua runtime (gopher-lua) с песочницей
-- CLI: `import-dokuwiki --pages /path --media /path --target-node ...`
+- Plugin API: node, config, activity, http, ui, vault
-- Originals сохраняются без изменений
+- Миграции плагинов (SQL)
+- Реестр типов дел → GUI рендерит разные карточки
+- CLI: plugin list/install/enable
+- Базовый шаблон дела (client.json)
+- Пример плагина: DokuWiki importerв `contrib/`
