Create the frontend UI for writing and viewing journal entries.
## Design Decisions
- Plain markdown textarea (no WYSIWYG)
- Images via markdown URL syntax (`![alt](url)`)
- Blank slate — no templates
- Private only (no sharing UI)
## Checklist
- [x] Add `JournalEntry` TypeScript types to `frontend/src/types/`
- [x] Create API client functions for journal CRUD
- [x] Create `JournalList` component — chronological list of entries for a run
- Show title, date, preview snippet, and linked boss (if any)
- Link each entry to its detail/edit view
- [x] Create `JournalEditor` component — markdown textarea with title input
- Optional boss result selector dropdown (link entry to a boss battle)
- Preview tab to render markdown
- Save and delete actions
- [x] Create `JournalEntryView` component — rendered markdown display
- [x] Add journal section/tab to the run detail page
- [x] Add route for journal entry detail/edit view
