deleteUser now succeeds for a user who has no comments (e.g. one who only logged in) instead of failing on the missing per-user bucket. In hard mode the per-user bucket is deleted, tolerating bbolt's ErrBucketNotFound so a bucket left behind by an earlier partial removal is still removed; the comment-deletion failure path now wraps the actual error. Because the engine cannot distinguish a valid login-only user from a never-existed one, deletion is idempotent: /admin/deleteme returns 200 for an unknown (but validly signed) token rather than 400. The deleteme test is updated to this contract, engine tests cover hard and soft deletion of login-only and unknown users, and the API docs note the idempotent behaviour.
