ORB-201 Remove challenge and accountability social UI

[thomasluizon]

Summary

• Removes the challenge and accountability social UI from web, mobile, and shared client code.
• Keeps Feed, Friends, social opt in, social identity, cheers, and the Today social entry card.
• Removes retired routes, proxy allowlist entries, hooks, actions, query helpers, types, validation, i18n keys, embedded friend and habit context, and orphaned tests.
• Regenerates the architecture map after the route and module deletions.

Closes ORB-201

Verification

• npm run lint
• npm run type-check
• npm test
• Focused web, mobile, and shared regression suites
• Cross Platform Parity local equivalent: web-scope files: 33, mobile-scope files: 26
• Pre-commit and pre-push hooks

Reference sweep

Retired accountability and buddy client references:

rg -n -i "accountability|buddies|buddy" apps packages --glob "*.ts" --glob "*.tsx" --glob "!**/node_modules/**" --glob "!**/.next/**" --glob "!packages/shared/src/types/__generated__/**"
no matches

Production challenge references, excluding tests and the generated server contract:

rg -n -i "challenge|accountability|buddies|buddy" apps/web apps/mobile packages/shared --glob "*.ts" --glob "*.tsx" --glob "!**/__tests__/**" --glob "!packages/shared/src/types/__generated__/**" --glob "!**/node_modules/**" --glob "!**/.next/**"

All remaining production hits are the unrelated agent step-up confirmation flow required to survive this ticket.

Scope decision

packages/shared/src/types/generated/api.generated.ts remains unchanged. It describes the server API, which this ticket explicitly does not delete. It is excluded from the client reference sweep above. Embedded social context in friend profiles, habit detail, and notification glyph routing was removed because it otherwise left orphaned client references.

Visual check

Human visual verification is owed after review for the two-tab social hub on web and mobile, removed entry points, and removed deep-link destinations. The work order prohibits starting the app or taking screenshots in this implementation session.
