Resolves conflicts with #1692-#1695: keeps both perf scripts, both README
paragraphs, one context-map row, and merges the J1 launch sections into the
performance-journeys document next to the renderer.initialBytes contract.

First step of the performance-journeys ratchet (plan thread: J1 `launch`, counter `renderer.initialBytes`).
- `tools/performance/measure-initial-bytes.mjs` reads the built `dist/apps/web/index.html` and sums `index.html` plus every same-origin `<script src>`, `<link rel="stylesheet">` and `<link rel="modulepreload">` it references. Manifest, icons, external URLs and lazy chunks are not counted. A referenced file missing from the build fails the measurement instead of counting as zero bytes.
- `--json` prints the breakdown; `--summary <file>` writes the `journeys.<journey>.counters` shape a ratchet checker will consume (next PR).
- New Nx project `performance-tools` (test + lint targets), Tier B in `tools/coverage/coverage-policy.json`, root scripts `perf:initial-bytes` and `perf:tools:test`.
- New contract `docs/architecture/performance-journeys.md`, linked from the validation map, the agent context map and the README.
- **Review follow-ups:** resources are deduplicated by request URL (query kept, fragment dropped); `index.html` is parsed with parse5 (already a repository dependency, scripting enabled), so comments, bogus comments, raw-text bodies (script/style/noscript/title/textarea), inert `<template>` contents and character references in attributes all follow the HTML5 algorithm instead of a hand-written scanner; the review's edge cases stay as regression tests; docs show the `pnpm --silent` form for JSON output and explain how the counter relates to Angular's rounded "Initial total".
- **Found while measuring:** the environment files and the playback diagnostic panel imported the whole `package.json` (`import packageJson from '@package'`), which esbuild cannot tree-shake, so `main.js` carried the complete file and the counter moved with every script or dependency edit. They now import `{ version }` only (eb662c485): `main.js` shrinks by **11,539 bytes** and the counter no longer depends on `package.json`. Jest's ESM loader exposes JSON only as a default export, so the two web Jest configs map `@package` to a stub that serves the real file's fields as named exports. Release note: `.changes/web-version-only-from-package-json.md` (`type: perf`).
Production build after this PR measures **2,739,508 bytes** (11 files + `index.html`); Angular's "Initial total" is this minus `index.html` and `assets/app-config.js`. The baseline file and the CI check land in the follow-up PRs; C1 (lazy Angular date locales) then lowers it.

Implements plan items A1, A3 (J1 only) and the minimal A4 from
.plans/2026-09-25-performance-journeys-ratchet.md.
- journey-renderer-probe.ts: init-script probe counting DOM mutations,
layout shifts and long tasks until the first source card is visible on
/workspace with the splash removed; unit-tested with jsdom fixtures.
- journey-main-ipc-capture.ts: counts bridge invocations from the preload's
renderer-API trace channel up to a sentinel call the probe fires, so the
IPC counter is exact without touching production code.
- launch.journey.ts + playwright.journeys.config.ts: seeded profile (one
M3U source, one Xtream portal on the loopback mock), one warm-up and five
measured iterations, fresh process and data directory each, writing
dist/performance/journeys/<timestamp>/summary.json with exact counters
and P50/P90 wall-clock.
- Nx target electron-backend-e2e:journeys and root script perf:journeys.
- docs/architecture/performance-journeys.md, README, context and
validation map entries.
renderer.cdTicksToFirstCard and main.sqlStatementsBeforeReadyToShow are
reported as unavailable with the reason instead of being faked.
