fix: session restore timeout + block .git access

- Add 12s timeout to restoreSession() — client.init() could hang
  indefinitely if token expired or server unreachable, leaving user
  on spinner forever. Now clears stale credentials and shows login.
- Sync persistence startup wrapped in try-catch — non-fatal
- .htaccess blocks .git directory (was returning 200 to scanners)
