Move to a three-node cluster with a Talos VIP; add Longhorn

Every node is now both control plane and worker, giving real tolerance
for losing any single machine (etcd quorum needs 3, not 1). A Talos VIP
gives the cluster one stable address regardless of which node answers.

Also pre-installs Longhorn for replicated storage, backed by a Talos
UserVolume on each node's second disk (>=900GB, non-system) rather than
the default path — mirroring the pattern from the homescale repo.

Docs renumbered to make room for 06-longhorn.md; checklist, glossary,
network map, and CLAUDE.md's guided-bootstrap instructions updated to
match, including asking the user for node IPs, VIP, and disk info before
generating any Talos config.
