HOST1 completes local onboard independently during Phase 1

partnership_manager.sh:
- --local-only flag for --onboard: skips remote pre-flight, WebUI reconfig,
  state push; runs FolderView3 folder creation + writes HOST1_LOCAL_DONE=true
  to setup.db + pushes it; exits without writing ACTIVE (partnership not yet
  established until Phase 2)

partnership_onboard.sh:
- Phase 1 exit now runs partnership_manager.sh --onboard --local-only after
  SSH + conf push, so HOST1 is fully configured on its own side before Phase 2

include/partnership.php:
- vv_pt_nodes() reads HOST1_LOCAL_DONE from setup.db; exposes as local_done
  on the self node (null for remote nodes)

pages/partnership.php:
- Self node card shows green "Local setup complete · waiting for partner"
  badge when local_done=true
- Actions: "Complete HOST1 Setup" button appears when HOST1 hasn't run local
  setup yet but HOST2 is already at phase 1 — lets user trigger it manually
- vvPtLocalSetup() top-level function calls partnership_manager.sh via run.php
