Show a post's image on its card, and show it full size

_attachment_display.html iterates a context variable named
`attachments`, so every caller binds it before the include.
_post_card.html was the one caller that did not: it guarded on
item.attachments but included the partial with nothing bound, so the
gallery looped over whatever `attachments` happened to be in the
surrounding page context and rendered empty. Every post with an image
looked image-less on the feed and on profiles, and on a project page -
where project_detail.html sets `attachments` at template scope for the
project's own files - a devlog card would have rendered the project's
files as its own.

With the image actually reaching the card, render a lone one properly:
a gallery holding exactly one item gets a `single` class and takes the
full content column (max-height 480px, object-fit contain, no hover
scale), matching the original DevPlace. That branch serves the stored
original rather than thumbnail_url, because a thumbnail is 200px on its
longest side and stretching it to the column width is visibly blurry.

Animated GIFs needed no change and now have a test proving it: they
never had a thumbnail to flatten, so they already took the original-file
path and simply render larger.

 **Ingesting a file from a URL.** `store_attachment_from_url(url, user_uid, filename=None)` (async, in `attachments.py`) is the remote counterpart to `store_attachment`: it downloads the URL on the server through `fetch_remote_file()` - SSRF-guarded (`_guard_public_url` resolves the host and refuses private/loopback/reserved/multicast addresses, mirroring the Devii fetch guard) and size-capped (streams, aborting once `_get_max_upload_bytes()` is exceeded) - resolves a filename from the URL path or the response `Content-Type` (`MIME_TO_EXT`), then calls `store_attachment()` so the bytes land in the **exact same** pipeline (validation, thumbnailing, DB row). It raises `RemoteFetchError(message, status)` which the route maps to an HTTP status. It is exposed at `POST /uploads/upload-url` (`UploadUrlForm{url, filename?}`, `require_user_api`) and as the Devii catalog action `attach_url` (handler `http`, `requires_auth=True`); both return the same record as `/uploads/upload`. The returned `uid` binds to a resource the same way as any upload - via `attachment_uids` at create/edit time - so attaching a remote image is just `attach_url` then `create_post`/`create_project`/etc. with that uid. Do not re-download remote files in a router; reuse this helper so the guard and size cap stay in one place.
 
-`_row_to_attachment()` / `store_attachment()` expose `is_image` and `is_video` (derived from the mime prefix). The shared partial `templates/_attachment_display.html` branches image -> `<img>`, video -> `<video controls preload="metadata" class="gallery-video">`, else download link; rendering through this one partial is what makes video work across every feature at once. `AttachmentOut` (`schemas.py`) carries both flags - add new display keys there too or JSON drops them.

+**Every caller MUST bind `attachments` before including the partial** - `{% set attachments = item.get('attachments', []) %}` or `{% with attachments=... %}`. The partial iterates the bare name `attachments`, so a caller that only guards on `{% if item.attachments %}` and includes without binding renders the gallery from whatever `attachments` happens to be in the surrounding page context. This is not theoretical: `_post_card.html` did exactly that, so **feed and profile cards silently rendered an empty gallery for every post that had an image**, and on a project page (where `project_detail.html` sets `attachments` at template scope for the project's own files) a devlog card would have rendered the *project's* attachments as if they were the post's. Guarded by `tests/e2e/feed.py::test_feed_card_shows_the_post_image`.
+
+**A lone attachment is a hero, not a chip.** When the gallery holds exactly one item the partial adds a `single` class, and `attachments.css` widens that item to the full content column (`max-height: 480px`, `object-fit: contain`, no hover scale) instead of the 240x200 chip a multi-item gallery uses. **The `single` branch must serve `att['url']`, never `thumbnail_url`** - a thumbnail is 200px on its longest side, so blowing it up to the column width renders visibly blurry. That is the whole reason the src is a conditional rather than "thumbnail when one exists". Because the partial is shared, this applies everywhere at once: post cards, post detail, comments, gists, projects and chat bubbles. Animated GIFs never had a thumbnail to begin with (`THUMBNAIL_EXTENSIONS` excludes `.gif`, so animation survives), which means they already took the original-file path and simply render larger now. `AttachmentOut` (`schemas.py`) carries both flags - add new display keys there too or JSON drops them.
 
 Media is served **inline** (not forced-download) for known-safe types only. The set `INLINE_MEDIA_EXTENSIONS` in `main.py` (`UploadStaticFiles`) and the matching `map $uri $upload_disposition` in `nginx/nginx.conf.template` must stay in sync: images/video/audio -> `inline` (so `<video>` plays and seeks via Range), everything else -> `attachment`. SVG is deliberately excluded from both (stored-XSS defense). `ContentRenderer.js` embeds direct video URLs typed into content via `videoExtRe`, mirroring its image handling.
