The location_search_url column existed but was dead — the scraper always
rebuilt the URL from the free-text location name. Now the Location
Configuration form takes a "Booking.com search URL" field: paste the
address-bar URL from a real search and the scraper lifts ss/dest_id/
dest_type from it (the most reliable destination pin). Falls back to
dest_id, then plain name. Server also extracts dest_id from the URL for
the column and derives a display name from ss when none is typed.

Free-text ss= destination resolution is non-deterministic: tonight's
30-day run resolved "Stow on the Wold" to St. Wolfgang, Austria for 8 of
30 dates, saving Salzkammergut hotel rates into the matrix. dest_id +
dest_type=city in the search URL pins the destination.
- booking_scrape_config gains a dest_id column (idempotent ALTER)
- scrape_location_search/_build_search_url thread dest_id through
- /config/location accepts dest_id

- New "Scraper Proxy" tab: enable toggle, host/port/username/password/
country, Save, and a Test Connection button that reports the live exit
IP + country through the proxy
- Backend proxy config now lives in system_config (DB authoritative when
booking_proxy_enabled is set; BOOKING_PROXY_* env vars are the fallback)
- Dedicated /config/proxy GET/POST/test endpoints; password is write-only
(never returned, blank keeps the stored value) and masked in /config/system
- Surface proxy status keys in the read-only System tab

Concurrent manual scrapes were interleaving (two Chromium sessions on one
LXC) causing the page timeouts behind partial results. SCRAPE_LOCK guards
run_manual_scrape and process_queue; the trigger endpoint returns 409 when
busy, and the frontend keeps the job queued and retries after 30s.

- matrix response gains last_scraped per date (max scraped_at across all
hotels), so column headers show the newest scrape touching the date even
when the visible hotels were on a failed page
- cells >1h older than the column's latest scrape render italic with *
- every cell tooltip now includes the datestamp the price was scraped
