Add an overdue nudge: the owner gets a reminder when a job's deadline has passed and the job is still open ("“Feed the cat” was due yesterday").

Design questions to settle first:

Cadence: a single day-after nudge (simplest, recommended first cut), or repeat until done (daily gets naggy fast for a family install)?
A distinct JOB_OVERDUE kind, or reuse JOB_DUE with different copy? A distinct kind lets a member mute the nag but keep the day-of reminder.
Unassigned overdue jobs: same decision as #91 — recommend the same answer both places.

This extends the #91 ticker (same scheduler, deadline < today instead of = today), so build it after #91 — possibly in the same PR if the design stays small. Usual kind plumbing if a new kind: proto enum, notify method, en+ga messages, webhook decorator, web push-preference checkbox + PUSH_KINDS entry, Android channel.

Follow-up from the reminders audit.

#91 gives a job's owner a nudge on the day the deadline falls. After that day passes, an unfinished job goes silent again — the owner forgets, the board quietly accumulates overdue work, and nobody hears about it. The web paints overdue flags, but only for whoever looks.

Decisions (2026-08-16): distinct JOB_OVERDUE kind, fires every day the job stays open past its deadline (naggy by design; a member can mute it and keep JOB_DUE). Unassigned overdue jobs broadcast to everyone, matching #91.
