Fixes #7

Problem

When main.js fails to load (network error, CORS, script blocked), the Workshop HUD stays on "INITIALIZING" forever — no error, no retry, no fallback. The existing retry logic in main.js only handles WebSocket failures, not the case where the JS itself never runs.

Changes

  • Inline fallback timeout (index.html): An 8-second inline script detects if main.js never set window.__workshopBooted = true and transitions the HUD to an error state with retry button.
  • /api/ui fallback link: Added to the HUD, shown in offline state so users have an alternative path.
  • Offline message: Updated to "WORKSHOP OFFLINE" for clarity.
  • main.js coordination: Sets __workshopBooted flag on load and shows the fallback link in all offline states.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Loading screen shows progress/status during connection attempt
  • Clear error message appears after connection timeout
  • Retry button works
  • User is never stuck on a dead black screen indefinitely
Fixes #7 ## Problem When `main.js` fails to load (network error, CORS, script blocked), the Workshop HUD stays on "INITIALIZING" forever — no error, no retry, no fallback.
