Parth e7d75c3b05 Rewrite Python comments in Google developer documentation style (#12)
* Rewrite comments in Google developer documentation style

Rewrite the comments and docstrings across the backend core modules so they
read plainly. The previous prose was accurate but dense and figurative, which
made it slow to skim.

Applies the Google developer documentation style guide: short sentences, active
voice, present tense, American spelling, and no metaphors, idioms, or
rhetorical asides. Replaces em-dash chains with separate sentences.

"""Phase 8: user resolution, sessions, and the shared demo key.
The `AIDND_MULTI_USER` environment variable selects one of two modes:
* Local mode, the default. Every request resolves to one automatically created
local user. There are no cookies and no login UI, so a clone or a
docker-compose run behaves like the single-user app from before Phase 8.
* Multi-user mode, used for hosted deployments. Requests carry a signed session
cookie. `GET /api/auth/me` creates a guest user on the first visit, and
registering upgrades that guest in place so their data survives. A request
without a valid session gets a 401, and the frontend re-establishes the
session through `/me`.
The shared demo key, which is the fallback when a user brings no key of their
own, is also configured here. A user whose settings hold no API key is routed to
a server-funded endpoint with a model allowlist and a per-day turn cap.
