(Migrated from codeberg.org)

Replace the current two-step flow (register → subscribe) with a single combined form for new subscribers.

Route: /subscribe (or /subscribe/demo when coming from demo with import data)

Form fields:

Email
Password
Confirm password
Plan selection (if multiple plans)
Stripe Payment Element

Single submit button: "Subscribe & Create Account"

On submit:

Validate email/password
Create user account
Process Stripe payment
On success: activate subscription, import demo data if present, redirect to app
On payment failure: account exists but inactive, show error, allow retry

Edge cases:

Email exists → show login link
Payment fails → account created but unsubscribed, allow retry or send recovery email
Session expires with demo data → lose import, can still subscribe normally
Cleanup incomplete signups after 24h (optional)

Existing flows:

Keep /register for free tier/trial if applicable
/login unchanged
Remove standalone subscription page (merge into this)

Demo variant:
When POST arrives from demo with JSON payload, store in session and show same form. Import data after successful payment.
