Add a Kiwix search client and score retrieval (Vikunja #403)

Step one of letting Maven read instead of recall. No LLM yet.

internal/kiwix/client.go: search a local Kiwix server, parse the RSS
reply, hand back title + path + plain-text snippet + word count. The
snippet is the unit of context; a full article is ~100KB of HTML and
will not fit a 4096 token window.

internal/kiwix/retrieval_eval.go plus knowledge_v1.json: the 9 knowledge
questions from the phrasing fixture, each with hand-written English
keywords, scored on whether a wanted article comes back in the top 5.
Opt-in via MAVEN_KIWIX_URL, since CI has no Kiwix. No pass bar, the
number is the finding.

Result on the live mirror: 8/8 answerable questions hit, 7 of them at
rank 1. Retrieval works. Keywords are written by hand on purpose, since
Kiwix ranks by keyword and not by meaning, so a natural question fails.
A query-rewrite step is the next piece of work.
