DEV_GUIDE.md and the three READMEs still advertise Go 1.25.7 and
golangci-lint v2.7, but CI has since moved on:
- backend/go.mod declares go 1.26.5, and backend-ci.yml / release.yml /
security-scan.yml all resolve the toolchain via
`go-version-file: backend/go.mod` and then hard-assert
`go version | grep -q 'go1.26.5'`.
- backend-ci.yml pins golangci-lint to v2.9.
So a contributor following DEV_GUIDE.md installs a linter two minor
versions behind CI (different findings locally vs. in CI) and expects a
Go version that the workflow's own assertion step rejects.
Update all ten stale references, and note in the CI section which files
the Go version assertion lives in so future bumps don't miss one.
Docs only, no code or workflow changes.
Method 3 (source compile) instructs users to pre-create config.yaml,
but does not mention that doing so disables the setup wizard — the
only code path that creates the initial admin account. Users following
the README end up with a running server and an empty users table, and
login fails with "invalid email or password".
The default.admin_email / default.admin_password fields in config.yaml
are loaded into the config struct but never read by any code path
(setup.SetupConfig.Admin is tagged yaml:"-"), so they cannot serve as
an alternative way to seed the admin.
Add a "Creating the Admin Account" subsection to Method 3 in all three
language READMEs (EN/CN/JA), explaining the wizard dependency and two
workarounds: let the wizard generate config.yaml, or temporarily move
config.yaml aside to trigger the wizard on first run.
