Rotation is optional now, so a well-known default ('clusev') would be a standing takeover
credential on a fleet-root console. The installer now creates the first admin with a random
Str::password(16), printed once on the CLUSEV_ADMIN_PASSWORD= line that install.sh already
surfaces in the closing banner. must_change_password still nudges a rotation, but even if the
operator keeps it, the secret is no longer guessable.
Verified: the printed password authenticates + differs per install; noop-when-admin-exists is
intact; Codex review APPROVED.

Default the first-admin login e-mail to a predictable admin@clusev.local
when no --email / CLUSEV_ADMIN_EMAIL is given, instead of a host-derived
admin@<host> address the operator would have to guess. Combined with the
default password 'clusev' (forced change on first login), a fresh install
now has a fully predictable initial login. Override at install time or
change it later under Settings -> Profile.

- Initial admin now uses the standard default password "clusev" (operator decision) with
must_change_password forcing a new password on first login; banner/MOTD/README tell the
operator to change it immediately. Idempotent no-op when an admin already exists.
- Richer host MOTD (CLUSEV wordmark, version, live stack status, login + management hints).
- README: install block now installs git (minimal Debian/Ubuntu lack it) and lists it as a
prerequisite — found by a full fresh-VM install test (install + idempotent re-run verified).
