Rebrand paid tier to $99 Founding Lifetime Member

[ralyodio]

What

Rebrands the paid membership in the join@ onboarding flow from $10 "Premium" to $99 Founding Lifetime Member (first 1,000 accounts), and lists every bonus feature in the upgrade pitch.

New ssh join@bbs.profullstack.com upgrade pitch

  ★ Founding Lifetime Member — $99, one-time
    Only the first 1,000 accounts. Pay once, keep it for life.

  Everything in your free membership stays free — founding adds these
  bonus features, forever:
    • your own email   name@bbs.profullstack.com (forwards to you, webmail included)
    • custom domains   point yourdomain.com at your homepage
    • Tor access       ssh tor@bbs.profullstack.com — fetch URLs & join IRC over Tor
    • locked-in price  founding rate is yours for life — never renew, never pay again

Bonus features were sourced from what the code actually gates behind ensurePremium (personal email + webmail, custom domain@, and the tor@/tor-url@/tor-irc@ routes) — no invented perks.

Changes

• internal/payments: PremiumPriceLabel and default AGENTBBS_PREMIUM_AMOUNT $10 → $99; new FoundingCap = "1,000" const.
• cmd/agentbbs/main.go: rewrote offerPremium pitch; updated already-paid welcome header and gated-route upsell copy; doc comments.
• internal/store/store.go + README.md: copy/doc updates.

Notes

• Price stays env-overridable via AGENTBBS_PREMIUM_AMOUNT.
• "First 1,000 accounts" is marketing copy — no enforced cap or live counter yet.
• Internal naming (Premium field, DB column, grant-pod) is unchanged; only user-facing copy changed (no migration).
• ⚠️ This branch was cut from a working tree that also had unrelated in-progress News/NNTP work; that work is not in this PR. CI may need the News changes resolved separately for a clean standalone build.
